Wesbrook

Located on the coastal side of SW Marine Drive near the T-intersection with Wesbrook Mall, this nest takes a bit of an effort to spot. Take a through look, and you'll soon find it. Stop on Wesbrook Mall, then look across SW Marine Drive up toward the right. (Parking can be a challenge.) Up toward the left is a perching tree. Hopefully, it'll be occupied!

Bald Eagles are so named because they are "white-headed". Balde is an Old English term meaning white.

Adult males and females are identical in color... white heads and tails, with blackish-brown bodies. Their feet and beaks are yellow.

Eagles mature at about 4 or 5 years of age, and live to about 30.

With up to a 7-foot wingspan, having a height of 3 to 3 1/2 feet, and weighing 8 to 15 pounds, these great birds of prey can lift about 4 pounds. The female is larger than the male.

An eagle's diet consists primarly of fish, but circumstance can force them to dine on carrion.

These 'eagle-eyed' birds have exemplary eyesight, and are strong swimmers.

Eagle pairs remain together until they are parted by the death of one of them.
