I apologize if this question has been answered before, but when do these eagles normally lay eggs? The nest is covered with snow and it doesn't seem like a good time, but maybe it always snows at this location. I'm from Texas where it hardly ever snows. Thank you.

I did not expect them to build even higher. For me, the nest was finished. :blush:

Decoration? 8-)
