That's a great live cam of the eagle's nest. I've been watching a nest in Florida from the beginning of the eggs to hatch & fledge. One eagle hatched on 12/18 & the other hatched 12/20. One officially branched 2/20 and fledged 3/2. One bird had to be taken out of the nest because of a issue concerning it's foot but seems it will be just fine. Thanks for the site.

I haven't watched it in some time.Is Hope still around the nest area? I read this morning that Peace will be put back near the nest area today. |
We have an eagle cam here in Minnesota that I watch every day. Our 3 eaglets just hatched recently! It is so fun and informative to watch. Try www.dnr.state.mn.us. Hope I did that right!

Oh my gosh! I can't believe I've just been watching an eagle breathe thousands of miles away in Washington DC while I'm sitting in Durban, South Africa! How absolutely awesome is that! Beautiful! I hope it's going to be a successful hatching!

I watched last year the Red Tailed Hawks on a college campus, can't remember which one. It snowed on them too and I wrote to the people wondering if those poor little eggs would freeze. They reassured me that these were experienced parents and would be able to care for these young despite the snow. And they were right. All three chicks hatched and fledged.
I just loved it when the parent would come back with squirrel vitals and line the chicks up and feed them one by one. It was like she was telling them: Line up, put your wings back and get ready for squirrel dinner. In no time there was nothing left of that hapless squirrel, not even a bone. I've sure got extra squirrels this year. No winter and 7 of them are raiding my bird feeders. A friend said to put a slinky on the feeder. I'll have to move the ones hanging from the trees, but I'm going to try it. |

Saw the title to this post and had to look. In Arizona, Snowbirds take on a whole different meaning.
