    Your site doesn't work. It needs to turn blue. Would love to see these eaglets.

    We have a camera on a pair of eagles in our town in Alaska now. I can see the white heads in the nest when we drive past and the adults have even visited the nest this winter.

    hmm, that odd, I just read your post and went to site using info I postedoriginally, and because it's now nite (11:45ish), the camera pics are black and white, but during the day in full color .... I think they were having camera problems, but have since corrected. Try again! Both eggs have hatched now! We watched this saga last year for the first time and were totally amazed at the development of eaglets and the total devotion of the parents....love reading the chat line to the right of the filming too......

    Thanks for the webcam info, I'll be watching the babies grow up. I live in a rural area in north central Florida and see bald eagles often in the winter. They are so majestic and their white feathers are just dazzling on sunny days!

    That took me to a site that showed the eagles with two chicks hatching. I couldn't find one with 19 chicks.

    That's the right one. She just meant that the parents have raised that many chicks over time since they built that nest.

    I love webcams on birds of prey nests. Every year I watch an Osprey nest on a webcam feed, the site is in Wales, and the feed starts up every year when the Ospreys return; it is exciting waiting for the eggs to be laid, the hatching, watching them grow and then fledging, and finally the group leaving for warmer countries late July/August.
