Does it seem to others that the pair of eagles at the lock at the outlet
of Cayuga Lake has moved its nest to the south? I didn't see any
activity at the electric poles at the lock and the nest there seemed
shrunken. And, there is a large pile of sticks farther to the south in a

Many observers have noticed this new nest-building activity over the past several months. I think the question is, what will happen to the photogenic nest atop the pylon? Are there enough Bald Eagles around for another pair to use it? Would they even tolerate being so close? Will Ospreys reclaim
I've been wondering that very thing. One day I was there and both eagles were
near their new nest. Down near the lock an immature eagle was perched in a
tree. The eagles came down and drove it off. I have a feeling they won't
tolerate any other bird in the old location, which is too bad.
I remember when the eagles took over the nest from the osprey. When the osprey
arrived back in town, there was a talon to talon fight into the water observed
by one of the guys working. He said it happened just after the birders left. It
makes me wonder if there will some contention over that
