(Photo by Friends of ONWR member Tajinder Singh) Spring is on the way, at least that’s the word from the folks taking a walk around Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge this month. The refuge’s bald eagles are busily sprucing up their nests and frequently seen hauling in new sticks and grasses to prepare for eaglets. A recent citizen science effort led by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife shows that a total of 707 bald eagle nests were reported in the state in 2020. To the delight of everyone who lives in Ottawa County, residents here enjoyed the most eagle activity with 90 nests.
