Eagle Cam



















I have had both cams on all day at work....split screens. The Hanover, PA cam has been screwed up because of so many hits.

I had the Hanover cam on around 6 pm last night and saw the Eaglet have it's first meal - It was amazing to see the parent feed it the fish it's mate had dropped off in the nest. Also had some connection issues due to so many hits.

I have been fortunate enough to see theses magnificent birds flying around near where I live on more than one occasion. They have become fairly common in a river gorge where I kayak.

The best is yet to come on both cams . . . . .:cool:

Since they hatched so close in time to each other, and there seems to be plenty of food available, lets hope each has a good chance to survive. I saw two different feedings today and it was amazing how gentle the parent is while making sure each Eaglet gets enough to eat. Looks like fish is on the menu.
 


















the second one in Hanover is being pecked by the first one. It looked pretty pitiful this afternoon.

I had to stop watching -- couldn't take it any longer.

I noticed that also - very sad, but a part of nature, albeit a cruel part.

While we can't understand why something like this would happen, it is part of the bigger picture that has helped these birds survive. If the second eaglet isn't going to make it, I hope it is over quick.

Still waiting on Pittsburgh nest . . . .
 






Pittsburgh was deemed unviable at 8pm last night. OMG,the people on the chat are carrying on hysterically. Another sad fact. the eagles will continue to rotate shifts but stay off longer and longer.

Sad.

At 11:00am one eagle brough some type of food to the nest. The one eaglet is still pecking away at the other. Again, thanks B/N for this look into nature.
 






I am FLOORED at how some of the watchers have reacted to the loss of the egg at Pittsburgh. OMG, you'd think one of their own kids had been killed in a horrible accident. on and on and on....one woman likened it to losing her mother.

Some of those people are way over the top - They need to get a grip on reality. Sometimes nature can be seemingly cruel.

They are mostly eating fish, and some pretty big ones at that. The pecking doesn't seem as bad as it was early on and both Eaglets seem to be getting fairly equal amounts of food. I am keeping my fingers crossed that they both make it - The Pittsburgh nest had 3 survive last year.
