In the mid 70’s there were only 30 nesting pairs of Bald Eagles because of DDT.

Since then, it was banned, and the population has rebounded and now Bald Eagles are nesting here in San Diego.

Ernie Cowan is a photographer, author, and naturalist and has been watching the nest for three years.

“Wow! Look at that profile, he is really posing,” said Cowan.
