Annual Count Finds 11 Bald Eagles Living in San Bernardino National Forest.
A canvassing of San Bernardino National Forest this month turned up nearly a dozen bald eagles there, officials said Monday.
A total of 11 birds — six adults and five juveniles — were found, a slight decrease from the 15 counted last year, according to a U.S. Forest Service news release.
More than 100 volunteers helped conduct the count of America’s national bird. The survey area spans five lakes within San Bernardino National Forest and two California State Park recreation areas.
“Several dozen bald eagles typically spend their winter vacations around Southern California’s lakes, adding to a few resident nesting bald eagles that stay year-round,” the news release states.
