The USDA located and removed a 9th nest on Feb. 6th.  So sad for this pair...   crying
DAMN them, how can they keep doing this, it obviously isn't accomplishing a thing.  Sad

It's animal cruelty - they can paint anyway they want but to me that's exactly what it is.  This is their home and has been for years.  Sad Sad

A love story between 2 Eagles.

One is HK from Northfolk Botanical Gardens, the missus is from NC and here is their story well written by Mary Reed Barrow

HK is 5 years old now and ready to breed! Smiley

This year HK is finally 5 years old, old enough to breed. He jumped the gun and proclaimed his readiness by building a huge nest last year near Honey Bee. But Sterling played hard to get. I think she told HK he had to grow up and stop fooling around first.

The Norfolk Botanical Garden bald eagles appear to be safe and sound in a new nest outside of Norfolk Botanical Garden. Having endured two years of nest destruction and harassment, the NBG eagles have wisely chosen to build a new nest on private property where they cannot be disturbed.

THE NEW NEST IS ON PROPERTY NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AND TO PROTECT THE EAGLES FROM FURTHER HARASSMENT, THE NEW NEST LOCATION WILL NOT BE DISCLOSED.

We have not disclosed this information to you before now for the safety of the eagles first and foremost, but also because until the last few days it was impossible to verify exactly whose nest it was. Mike Inman was able to get that magic photo that clearly shows the “dot” in Dad’s eye. Thank you, Mike!!!! It IS Dad Norfolk’s nest. As you can see, the nest is quite large and it is believed to be his “primary” nest. And the property owners support our eagles and EOA in every conceivable way.

This is the "BEST" news!!

After I read this on FB last night, I was so happy to finally hear some good news about Dad Norfolk and his mate. I, also, thank the landowners who are supporters of the Eagles and EOA and all they've done and are doing to prevent further harassment of these birds.
