Eagle cam

Thought this was pretty cool

U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Eagle Cam - MyOutdoorTV.com

Its a webcam of a Bald Eagle's nest in West Virginia....theres currently one chick in there and the mother comes and goes, but its on 24/7 and switches to night vision mode in the dark. You should see how the mother sleeps on top of the chick at night.

eta: Is that the baby's wing - it kind of looks like a rock on night vision.

just tuning in

thanks



There had been an eagle cam up for a bunch of years at Inwood Park ( a very "unexpected" place because of how The Island of Mahattan is generally perceived to look ) ... for the 5 years eaglets were being re-introduced into the area. It was pretty sucessful, i think.

right now the eglet is by itself........
imagine going (growing) from cute to AWESOME......

(VS going from cute to incredibly Annoyingly destructive like "gremlins" )

I think when the eaglet gets closer to the ?back (where the cam is) part of the nest he looks ? 50% bigger than when he's farther away from that spot ...to the ( ?front) right side from our POV .

iany way he got to close to the edge of the nest for my comfort ( get back...!!)
and was flapping out his wings a lot this afternoon.
Mom nor dad haven't retuned yet.
