The Eagle Cams are up!

The Florida Eagles have hatched 1 chick and there is another egg that hasn't hatched yet. Here's the link and a picture:

The Berry College Eagles laid their 1st egg yesterday so it will be a while before it hatches.

That's awesome anne

I love the cams.

Here is a picture of the chick in the first picture today at about 7 weeks of age. Since the other egg never hatched, this guy got all the food and is huge!

Aw that's a shame the other egg never hatched. I don't really know much about birds. My dad kept some small birds when I was a kid and I've had a few budgies myself but that's about it! The eagle is one of my favorite birds particularly the harpy eagle it looks really cool then theres the bone eating vulture/eagle known as the lammergeier also pretty cool tho im not so keen on the red eyes! I also like most small birds.

For all you eagle lovers here is the link to the MN, DNR eagle cam, they have 3 eggs. http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/fea...

While on a vacation in Alaska, a big brown bird got close enough for me to take it's picture. I was so excited to be that close to a bird, but told the Zipline guide I was disappointed it wasn't an Eagle. Oh, but it WAS, she told me! Young Bald Eagles are all brown without a white hood during the first 3-5 years or so when they are learning to fly etc., the brown feathers help camouflage them from predators.

Thanks for the link Margaret!

That is so cool Cheryl! I'd love to see the picture.

Your welcome Anne.

I'll see if I can find it. It was a number of years ago and we were transitioning from photos on CD to online and phone shots. I will have to look for it. First stop, an ancient Photobucket account. What was that password again? LOL
