Photographs taken of local bald eagle
This week, area resident Martin Fisher spotted and successfully photographed a bald eagle on Township Road 30.
While the bald eagle population in Ohio is growing, Hardin County has had nest counts in the single digits recently. A 2020 map of Ohio bald eagle nests shows 9 nests in Hardin County, some counties with zero nests, and a high of 90 nests in Ottawa County on Lake Erie.
The 2020 bald eagle nest total was 707. In March 2022, the estimated nest count was 806.
Previously an endangered species, the bald eagle’s federal and state status is now delisted but it is still in a federal monitoring stage.
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources recommends staying at least 100 yards away from the bird or nest.
