The Decorah eagles nest in Decorah, Iowa at a fish hatchery that is a good source of fish for their food. There are also several streams and woodlands surrounding their nest for further sources of food. Their next is about 80 feet up in a tree top, which helps keep their babies safe from predators and interference from humans.

The Iowa climate is a humid continental zone and generally has hot summers, cold winters, and wet springs. The eagles arrive in December to prepare the nest and to mate. Their eggs are laid in February and hatch in march. The eaglets fledge (take flight) in June and by July or August are no longer using the nest. The nest has no protection from the weather and all of the activities of the eagles is carried on in the rain, snow, and sleet. Eagles are very hardy birds.
