Bird Cams Around the World

I year ya, Matrix--I'm also staying til they totally do away with the old one! I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but they obviously don't listen to their customers' feedback.

I have learned to never say never. they( the eagles) may have slowed down the process ,when it was so cold. and we know they can do that.

That head in the nest reminds me of NG!!

Kitten...that red spot is a ducks head...remember New Girl bringing the heads last year in harrisburg?

now more ducks!!! (mallards) maybe they can hear the cheeps starting? and are stockpiling like the florida nest?

Red squirrel for lunch today! The red spot you see in the nest is what is left of a red squirrel brought in for lunch today. Good hunting, Dad!

Questions have been pouring in about our eagles. They are being watched all over the world, in at least 90 countries! This is all very exciting and new for us.

Here's a little more information about incubation:

Before laying and incubating eggs, both male and female eagles form a "brood patch", located below their breast-bone. This patch of bare, exposed skin allows for their warm skin to become in direct contact with the eggs to keep them warm. When you see the birds nestling onto the eggs and grabbing sticks for leverage, they are repositioning the eggs so that they are all touching their warm skin underneath.

This is just one physiological adaptation their bodies go through during the breeding and incubation period. Another is bone density. The female eagle's bones change and adapt while her body is developing eggs. If these eggs do not hatch, it is unlikely this pair will start all over this year.

Keep your fingers crossed!
