    After an unsuccessful 2025 season, a pair of bald eagles have recently begun renovations at the Hanover area eagle nest featured on a popular webcam feed.
    According to HDOnTap, a web camera service from San Diego that runs the live Hanover bald eagle nest camera, a pair of bald eagles have visited the nest with increasing frequency since Thursday, Dec. 4, 2025, and have spent hours in recent days renovating the nest.
    Bald eagles typically lay eggs in their nest between February through April, according to the Pennsylvania Game Commission, and nest-building often begins one to three months before eggs are laid in the nest.
    While eagles visited the nest in the early 2025 during nesting season, the nest remained mostly abandoned and did not see any eggs in the 2025 season, according to HDOnTap.
    The nest has experienced some difficulty in recent years, with no fledglings successfully raised in the nest since two fledglings left the nest during the 2022 season, according to records from the feed.
