Bald eagle nests are generally 5 feet wide and 3 feet deep. The largest recorded bald eagle nest 9.5 feet in diameter, 20 feet deep and weighed almost 6,000 pounds! Check out this to scale nest, at Hueston Woods.
Hueston Woods State Park is a state park located in Butler and Preble counties of the U.S. state of Ohio, about five miles northeast of Oxford in the southwestern part of the state. The park lies in Oxford Township, Butler County, and Israel Township, Preble County. It has nearly 3,000 acres, including a man-made lake of 625 acres. The park's beech-maple climax forest has been designated a National Natural Landmark.

I once saw an eagle working to fix up its nest.  It was laboring to fly over the road with two huge sticks in its talons.

Awesome sight.  :happy1:

I've seen the nests from a distance and they still look huge!!
