The nest is located in a large loblolly pine tree which is situated almost exactly in the center of the trail ROW. The eagle was spotted and he flew to the nest. I spoke with Tom Logan, Florida Fish & Game Commission, about the proposed trail bridge and trail location. Generally, he felt that construction could occur on the trail as long as it is conducted during the non-mating season from May 16 through September 30. The design and construction of the trail bridge is probable ,not a problem. He will speak with Don Palmer with the US Fish & Wildlife Service and report back. Other construction within the 750-foot radius is questionable. There are guidelines that can be followed to minimize impact. However, the developer cannot do anything that causes abandonment.
