 Link to nest cam of Bald Eagle at Lake Natoma: https://folfaneaglecam.org/ From the website: Nesting season in this part of California follows this typical pattern: Adults return to the nest in October to begin rebuilding their nest (nestorations!) and begin their mating ritual. Note that the female has chosen not to leave the area for the past two years. Eggs are laid approximately mid-February. Hatch happens approximately mid-March. Fledge happens early to mid-June. Fledglings leave the area sometime in July.
