are there bald eagles in ga
The Georgia Department of Natural Resources has identified a record number of bald eagle nests in Georgia this year. Aerial surveys conducted in January and March revealed 210 occupied nesting territories, 166 successful nests and 270 young. Thatâs the most since Georgia started a program to repopulate bald eagles in 1979. The DNR survey identified four nests in Floyd County, up from two from last year. Two nests are located near the Rocky Mountain Public Recreation Area, one of which was discovered this winter.
