Yes, there is an active eagles nest at the Big Island Wildlife Area.   As I
was at the wildlife area on Friday night about 6:00pm.  I spotted two eagles
at an active nest near the intersection of LaRue-Prospect Rd W & Espyville
Rd S.   If you go to the west from the intersection to the first parking lot
off the north side of the road and look across the road to the southwest,
you'll see the active eagles nest.   Also, at this location if you look to
the northwest there is another eagles nest but I didn't see any activity.

We saw another silowhet in the air and spotted an Eagle....It landed in the
Elgin School nest area.  To dark to see what tree it went to...I thought
that nest had been abandoned... Can anyone confirm if there is actual
nesting activity in that nest?

Happy Birding and God Bless
