The two wonderful PTZ cams overlooking the Harrison Mills Bald Eagle nest were kindly donated by the Pretty Estates on whose property the nest resides. The Pretty Estates operates the Sandpiper Golf Course on which the nest tree sits, the River's Edge Restaurant for the best food in the region, and Rowena's Inn on the River for exclusive cabin retreats.
The Pretty Estates has also opened up a trail and a public viewing area at the Harrison River's edge where you can view the world's largest gathering of bald eagles each fall and winter. This is also the hunting grounds for the Harrison Mills pair of eagles shown on the live cams and 6 other nearby nesting pairs.
Thanks Betty Anne for your support of these great birds and this rich habitat. The area's incredible diversity of wildlife is also acknowledged by the Harrison -- Chehalis River system being designated as Canada's first Salmon Stronghold.
Putting in these cams was exciting -- in all my years of visiting bald eagles nests none was as high as this nest -- 172 feet!
