MoJo - Eagle in Vidor?

#1

Post by trueno »

MoJo, or anyone else in SE TX, have you seen the eagle on Hwy 105? Guys at work mentioned it is nesting on the side of the road, traffic is kinda iffy and parking might be also.

Anyone been there, we're gonna head out there and check it out. Gettin' chills and a lump in my throat just thinkin' about it!

If I'm not mistaken, this is the eagle that was relocated off the east shore of Lake Woodlands. A few years back when they were building the "fly-over" exit from I-45 to Woodlands Parkway it nested on top of one of the columns and held up construction for a season (I believe that you can't move the nest of there are eggs in it).

If this is the same one, it's a beautiful bird and a heart-lifting experience to see it fly. If it isn't, I'd bet its still VERY beautiful...

There is a bald eagle between College Station, and Huntsville on Hwy 30. I saw it on my way home a weeks ago.

We drove out there this morning and we were able to see both of the adult eagles the babies weren't moving around. It was an awesome sight !
