Watch Eagles Hatch !

Cool, there was a similar site in B.C. a year or so ago.

All I can say is he sure has paitences No beer anr any thing I have just left it open and look every few minutes, only thing is he only moves when I am not watching.

Already out.

The eagle in Iowa has hatched the first one. It is quite neat to see something like this. I have had it running on the comp. All day yesterday and thin morning.

Cool!

I have been looking at this all day...

Thank you for the link. The kids like it too.

Awesome video. They are beautiful creatures.

Just sitting there, the only way I could tell she wasn't phony was an occasional blink.

Well now there are two and one more to go. we have it on one of the desktop going all the time. Neat.

Can't stop looking at such beauty.

I have it open in another browser tab.

We should start a pool - when will the 3rd egg hatch?

i just was watching and there are still two with one egg. 7:25 am. I think that's a good idea to pool when the last is hatched.
My guess is Wed night after ten pm. unless you want it mor to the exact tiem.

I should hate you. I can't tell you how much productivity I have lost since you posted this link.

I should hate you, but I'm grateful.

That is really cool, I would not have seen that without this thread. Thanks!

The last chick is breaking through it's shell.... and then the parent sat back down on all of them.

This is footage from 2AM last night, of the Decorah eagles, both Mom and Dad defending their young against a perceived threat from an owl and possibly another predator. Pretty interesting !

Cool webcam. What happened to the owl attack clip?

Has anyone watched the eagles latley. H was watching today and they are getting big. Spreading their wing and feeding themselfs now. I looked at the onew born in Norfork the same time and they ahve moved them into a nest cage as the female eagle got hit by an airplane on the 27th of April . Quite sad.

I have been watching the eagle's nest off and on all winter. Today I noticed there is 1 egg in the nest. This seems earlier than last year ... probably because of the mild winter. It will be interesting to see if this pair of eagles raises 1, 2 or more eaglets this year. Here is the current link: http://www.ustream.tv/channel-popup/decorah-eagles

The cycle of life starts all over again. Interesting to watch.

I watched them last year till they quit the link.

The link I posted above was active all fall and winter, although the eagles didn't visit the nest very often after the young left last summer. This winter after dark you would often see a couple of live mice scurrying around in the nest. They apparently made their home in or near the eagle nest ... seems like poor choice of real estate for a rodent! I don't know if the mice are still there or became a meal.

Thanks for the heads-up and the link. I'll be watching them again this year.

PS: It appears the Ads have gotten much heavier.

Thanks for the revival of this thread. I'll be watching again this year as well.

The most refreshing thing I have seen on any forum for a while!

Here's a webcam of a nest at Alcoa Co in Davenport. Has 3 eggs waiting to be hatched.

now I can watch two different sites have little ones.

that is very cool.

Third egg arrived Feb 24th at 8:05 PM CST

Another eagle just arrived. The one on the nest took off and the 2nd one is now on the nest.

Yeah, it is interesting that the male and female share the incubation duties.

Mom comes back, Dad has things all arranged... takes off... Mom re-arranges...

Is there an easy way to distinguish the male from the female? To me, they appear to be about the same size and coloration.

On how to tell the difference between Mom & Dad in this pair anyway...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lARYcL5A50

Mom is bigger, has grey in the head feathers compared to Dad - beak colors are different - Dad more orange.

"Isn't That The Way Its Done?"

We men never do anything right.

I thought it was just me.

Neat

Two babies now.

Very cool stuff. It's hard to stop watching it.

I have an eagle nest just across the river I can watch from my living room. Mom and Pop had two eggs hatch, but they're down to one babe now. Don't know what happened to the other one. Possibly the other baby killed it (they did fight a lot) or it fell out of the nest. Hope this one survives.

In any case, bald eagles are beautiful birds!

Florida has a large Osprey population. The Osprey is a cousin to the Eagle.

The City of Dunedin, FL has a webcam set up on a local Osprey nest. I just looked and one egg has hatched.

For the updated info Bobkz!

Forgot about this, it is so soothing to watch..

I've heard of this livecam before but hadn't watched it. It really is fascinating and no eggs have hatched yet. Thanks Bob!

Two eaglets--very cute!--have hatched since Friday and there's a black line on egg #3 suggesting it will hatch soon--if you don't see the eaglets at this point on the livecam, they're under mom or dad in the nest:

"D21" and "D22" are the 21st and 22nd eaglets born to this mating pair over the years at this location--the project doesn't give them human-type names to avoid anthromorphization:
