The first egg for the season was laid March 30th, this will be the 11th year (pretty sure) that they'll be streaming the eggs, rearing the babies and then watching them fledge. It's absolutely fascinating to watch how they care for the eggs through snow storms and sleet, then protect and feed the chicks. There are several other live cams you can find at the top of the page, but the hawks have always been my favorite to watch.

The 3rd egg hatched just 2 days ago, and the chicks are like fuzzy bobbleheads right now, it's hard for them to hold up their heads.
