PREVIOUS COVERAGE: Nature photographer captures images of bald eagles at White Rock Lake
Photographer Phil McKinney has been going to White Rock Lake and photographing the wildlife for years. He's been taking pictures of the bald eagles, but since the cold front the eagles have not been seen.
DALLAS - The family of bald eagles living at White Rock Lake just got a bit bigger.
Two new eaglets have been spotted in the nest at Lake Highlands Park.
The Dallas Park and Recreation Department and the birding community have been keeping an eye on the eagles' nesting behaviors since March.
Several weeks into the operation, Brett Johnson, the conservation manager with Dallas Park and Recreation, spotted the babies.
""We are excited the bald eagles have two new members," Johnson said in a statement.
Photos from the area show the adult bald eagles. The eaglets can't be seen from the ground.
U.S. Fish and Wildlife, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and Dallas Park and Recreation are working together to help keep the baby birds safe.
Park visitors are asked to stay at least 300 feet away from the nest.
An orange fence has been put up around the area.
Dallas' Park and Recreation Department is also asking for owners to keep dogs on a leash and noise levels low near the nesting area.
The city says that the eagles taking up residence at White Rock is proof that the conservation efforts in the area are going well.
"This is a testament to the department’s efforts in preserving and protecting our natural habitats that allow these majestic birds to thrive," said Johnson.
