The eagles’ nest is in use again this year! This makes year 7 of this nesting pair raising baby eagles in this aerie! Chicks hatched in April and will likely fledge in late July or August.
Two eaglets and adult bald eagle (right) on the nest.

The mated pair of bald eagles has returned once again to their aerie on a nearby island in Lake Winnipesaukee. Late March/early April is egg-laying time for them, then sitting the eggs for 35 days to hatching, then feeding the chicks until sometime in July when they fledge. Once airworthy, the immature eagles hang around [...]

At least one adult eagle is still in residence on the lake in late October. Don’t know whether this is the male or female, and we haven’t seen their two immature eaglets for about a month. I have read that they usually migrate before the adults.
This eagle was not bothered by either me or Peaches [...]

Fall is coming. Today is one of those mornings when it hits home that summer is almost over and there is fog on the Lake and a nip in the air.
I just came back from 2 hours on the water; I did not see any eagles today, but did see a whole gaggle of cormorants. [...]

The past two mornings I rowed my Alden shell to an island near ours to check the eagle’s nest, which I have looked at only once earlier in the summer. Yesterday there were two eagles on the nest, not sitting in it but moving around next to it. They were sort of far away to [...]

For the second summer, a pair of bald eagles has nested on an island in the south end of Lake Winnipesaukee. Last summer we learned they were there, so this year I rowed by several times to observe them again. They were sitting a nest in June, but I don’t know whether they hatched any [...]

Bald Eagle spotted on northerly point of Lockes Island, late October 2006. A few eagles have been nesting on Lake Winnipesaukee in recent years.
Zoomed in view… wow was I thrilled!
