Get to know the Decorah North eagles and their eaglets

The Decorah North eagles nest on private property just north of Decorah in a white oak tree at a preservation owned by the Raptor Resource Project. The pair of eagles at this nest are called Mr. North and DNF, short for Decorah North Female. She's had at least 40 eaglets that the Project knows of.

Generally, eagles begin courtship in October, according to the Decorah Eagles website. Eggs are usually laid in mid- to-late February and hatching begins in late March to early April. Eaglets usually fledge in mid-to-late June and disperse between August and October.

There are currently two new eaglets at the North Decorah nest, said Amy Ries, a spokesperson for the Raptor Resource Project.

Why is there a goose in a Decorah eagles nest?

There are plenty of birds and nests in Decorah, including geese. They have a history of getting feisty with one another for the sake of protecting their nests, Ries said.

Don't be surprised if you log on to a goose fight. But, if you're looking to do some goose watching specifically, you can usually find them on the camera labeled "Decorah Eagles," which has been used by a few different geese in recent years.
