The Great Nest

This is a replica of the Great Nest of Vermilion, Ohio. It is a Bald Eagles nest measuring 12 feet tall by 8.5 feet wide across its flattened top. It stood 81 feet from the ground in the leaning top of a Shellbark Hickory tree. It weighed 2,000 lbs and took 35 years to get to this size. It is on display at the Carlisle Reservation of the Lorain County Metroparks in LaGrange, Ohio.
