JULY 3, 2010 - I checked on the bald eagle nest north of Kentville in  
the Eagle Landing subdivision in the afternoon, and the two large  
nestlings were still in the nest.

JULY 5, 2010 - I checked on three bald eagle nests, two of which  
still have large nestlings/fledglings on/in the nests (no doubt not  
for long):

(1) north of Kentville, in Eagle Landing subdivision off Middle Dyke  
Rd. -- 2 large nestlings still in nest;

(2) Land of Evangeline Family Camping Resort, south edge, in tall  
spruce: one adult and one huge fledgling were perched on the nest  
rim, with the fledgling looking as big or bigger than the adult;

(3) southeast of jct. of Eye Rd. with Hwy. 1, east of Wolfville: no  
young or adults at the nest, and the oak foliage prevents seeing  
whether any fledglings remain near the nest, but my guess is that the  
1-2 youngsters there fledged quite a while ago.

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
