HARRISBURG — The Pennsylvania Game Commission says bald eagles are now known to be nesting in 47 of the state’s 67 counties.
The Game Commission said Tuesday that Clearfield, Cumberland, Delaware, Juniata and Perry counties didn’t have any known bald eagle nests last year, but do have them this year.
In 1983, there were only three eagle nests remaining in Pennsylvania. This year, the total is expected to exceed 140 nests.
