Here is an interesting site....TV pictures of an eagles nest in real time......you can see the nest 24 hours a day by clicking on the site.
There are 3 eggs in the nest and the first is supposed to hatch around March 22...either the Mom or Dad eagle will be on the nest at all times keeping the eggs warm.

Thanks Lighthouse...that's great! Wow, over 12,000 people watching right now.
I just found out today that my 10 year old daughter's class has been watching her every day for weeks. We are watching her now! So exciting!!!!
Lovely stuff, thanks for sharing I love Eagles they rock.
3M views and counting wow!
You know we've had this on the computer ever since I posted last week??? :o We just can't stop watching! The computer is in the living room/kitchen (it's one big open room) and the whole family watches it. We all holler to each other "SHE'S UP!!!" every time the mom or dad gets up, then we all come running to breathlessly watch for movement of the eggs :P! Anxiously awaiting the hatching. So thankful these people stream this stuff. It's an amazing intimate glimpse into their private world. 'Amazing' is all I can think of right now.
It looks like one of the eggs has holes poked in the top. Maybe one of the eaglets is about to be born!
Now it appears that one is halfway out of the egg and the mom or dad keeps pushing it back down and laying on it. I think I saw a beak!
I shared this with my class, they love it!
One egg hatched!! Woot!
Does anyone know where this is at?
Very interesting, thanks Lighthouse!
Decorah, Iowa. I think they keep the exact location a secret but it's somewhere in Decorah, Iowa. If you scroll down below the video, they could you some information about the eagles.
I saw two of the eaglets today. It is windy again today.
She was just feeding one of them but she covered them back up again. Yes, the wind looks terrible.
Lighthouse,
Thanks for posting this, it is really fascinating. Now that I've starting looking--I'll have to keep checking on them.
The third egg pipped!!!! I was so afraid it was a dud. I'm so happy you'd think they were my own eggs!! The one eaglet keeps pecking the other one. I hope they're just playing and not really fighting. It's so breath taking to watch the parents feed them and hear them cry for food. So amazing :)
This was been terrific!
I just read that there is a nesting pair now in Northeastern Wisconsin. The link to the cam is here:

Anyone watching the Decorah eaglets? Wow, it's so windy...and they are so amazing!
What about the Wisconsin eagle pair? Two eggs with April 22 estimate on hatching. :)
