NJ Bald Eagle Nests Dip Slightly, Likely Due to Avian Flu

The bald eagle population in New Jersey experienced a slight decline in active nests last year likely due to the impacts of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, according to the annual New Jersey Bald Eagle Project Report released today.

The report, developed by NJDEP Fish & Wildlife with the Conserve Wildlife Foundation of New Jersey, identified 251 nests that produced eggs in 2025, a five percent decrease from 2024, when a record 264 active nests were documented

“The Department of Environmental Protection’s work to restore New Jersey’s bald eagle population has been so remarkable that the species, once on the brink of extirpation in New Jersey, was removed from the state’s endangered species list last year,” said Acting DEP Commissioner Ed Potosnak. “This success, made possible with the support of countless volunteers over the years, is proof that DEP can deliver against seemingly insurmountable odds. This slight decline in active nests reminds us that we must remain steadfast in our efforts to protect bald eagles for future generations to admire.”
