State wildlife biologists are seeking volunteers to help them locate active bald eagle nests.
The information will be used to help create the 2025 census of Ohio’s bald eagle population. The effort is being undertaken by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources’ Division of Wildlife.
Nest locations may be reported at wildohio.gov through March 16.
