Bald Eagles Born in Chicago Again
Two baby bald eagles were born in Chicago. This has not happened in 100 years. The nest is in a park near a river. Pat and Steve found the first one.
Bald eagles are the national bird of the US. Long ago, they were in trouble. Bad chemicals hurt them. People helped them. Now they are common in Chicago.
The park used to be a water plant. Workers fixed the land. Small animals came back. Then mice and deer came. The eagles came to find food. Now they have a safe home.
