WEST BROOKFIELD, Mass. - There are between 70 to 80 bald eagle nests in Massachusetts. One of them is in a front yard of a home in West Brookfield.
MassWildlife banded two young eagles living in the nest with state and federal ID tags. Massachusetts eagle recovery has gone so well in Massachusetts and nation-wide, where we aren t as concerned as we were 20 to 30 years ago,” said Todd Olanyk, MassWildLife Central District Supervisor
The bands help keep track of the eagles’ movement, lifespan and living patterns. If you have a good enough pair of binoculars, you can read the band numbers, you can track where their movements are, where they disperse to. If one of them re-nests somewhere else, it helps us track their movement,” Olanyk said.
