West Vancouver's Marine Drive @ Parthenon Place


The nest is high in the tall Douglas-fir located... at the SE corner of Marine Drive and Parthenon Place. To view nest, park on Parthenon Place then look north toward Marine Drive.


While you're in the area, check-out West Vancouver's Lighthouse Park to the east, and Horseshoe Bay to the west. They are both well worth the visit.



Marine Drive @ Parthenon Place Nest


Nests (aeries) are usually constructed in tall trees beside rivers or near coastlines.

Bald eagle nests are added to every year. They often become the largest of any bird in North America.

Bald eagles lay from one to three eggs each year, with two being the norm.

Kept warm by both parents alternating incubation duties, eaglets hatch in 35 days.

From the time the parents ready the aerie and the young are on their own (the nesting cycle), takes about 20 weeks.
