Eagle Activities By Month
Follow Along to See the Annual Cycle of Eagle Life
November – January
Eagles return to the nest site and begin courtship displays, including aerial acrobatics and nest-building or repair. Chandler and Hope have used this nest year after year.
January – February
Eggs are laid, usually 1–3 per clutch. Both parents share incubation duties.
February – March
Eggs hatch after about 35 days. Tiny eaglets appear, and parents are busy feeding them.
March – May
Eaglets grow rapidly, developing feathers and learning to stand, stretch and flap their wings.
May – June
Young eagles begin “branching” — moving out of the nest onto nearby branches as they build strength and confidence.
June – July
Fledging occurs as the eaglets take their first flights. Parents continue to feed and teach them hunting skills.
July – August
Juveniles gain independence, dispersing from the nest area to explore new territories.
September – November
Adults may remain in the area year-round, but activity near the nest is minimal until the next season begins.
