Nature Center Holds Name the Eaglet Contest

Have you ever seen a baby eagle? There’s one at the Matagorda County Birding Nature Center that will be making his debut soon, and the Nature Center is holding a Name the Eaglet Contest to give the eagle a name.

This photo from last year by wildlife photographer Greg McMullin shows the bald eagle on her nest.

This is a video from the Nature Center of the eagle's nest and the eagle standing guard.

To enter, just fill out the Name the Eaglet form on the Nature Center’s website at mcbnc.org/NameTheEaglet. The best name from the entries will be chosen on March 25. The lucky winner will receive a Family Membership for one year, a piggy bank and a MCBNC tote bag. The Nature Center also will post the winner’s picture on their Facebook and Instagram pages.

Enter today at mcbnc.org/NameTheEaglet. There also is a fun downloadable coloring page. Pages that have been colored and delivered or mailed to the Nature Center will be displayed at the Indoor Event Center. The mailing address is: PO Box 2212, Bay City, TX 77404-2212
