Great News! There is confirmation of at least one eaglet in the relocated bald eagle nest at the John Bunker Sands Wetland Center. We don’t know if there is another eaglet but we are keeping an eye out for it. In July 2014, Oncor working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Arlington Ecological Services Field Office, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Migratory Bird Program, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Falcon Steel and the John Bunker Sands Wetland Center relocated a bald eagle nest from an existing tower to new tower. We are very excited to see that the eagles are doing well in their new nest!
