LINCOLN — The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission says 118 active bald eagle nests were found in the state in 2015.
That’s the most since the bird was placed on federal and state endangered species lists.
The number can be compared to 54 in 2007 and 111 in 2011. Even more, officials say it would not be unreasonable to conclude that more than 125 active nests were in the state last year.
