Geocache Description:




American Bald Eagle

There are two eagles found in Kentucky. The Bald Eagle and the Golden Eagle.
Bald Eagles were once common in Kentucky but during the mid 1900’s experience widespread declines and by the 1960’s had all bud vanished. With the banning of DDT in 1972 eagle introduction project began in earnest in the 1980’s Since then the population of Bald Eagles in Kentucky has continued to increase with more than 123 nesting areas.


Bald Eagle in Flight

Bald Eagles in Kentucky usually lay eggs from January to March, but will begin nest building or repair of existing nest as early as October. Eagles young usually leave the nest from April to July.  

Like its cousin the bald eagle, the much rarer golden eagle is making a comeback in Kentucky, where at least 15 are now spending their winters. One of them was in Bernheim the winter of 2014
