For any eagle watchers some sad information. The Hanover, Pa eagles nest at Cordorus State Park has been overtaken by intruder eagles. The two eggs were about ten days from hatching, and the nest has been occasionally attacked by a male and female eagle. The nesting female called Liberty disappeared on Saturday and feared dead from a fight with the intruder. The male has gallantly stayed on the nest calling to his female and incubating the eggs since Saturday repelling attack after attack. The last two days he has been literally buried in the snow. Today he finally left the nest for food and when he tried to return he was attacked, the eggs obviously have become unviable and it is a nest failure. Sadly, this is nature but a tough one to watch.
Wow, that’s very interesting. The Berry pair have withstood some attacks by a hawks and owls over the years but nothing like that.
