Tried to make this a proper post by saving a pic, but it won't let me do that.

Thought some might get a kick out of watching the eggs hatch.

The Update page says the eggs were layed on Jan 31 and Feb 2, with an incubation period of 34-35 days. So this time next weekend we should be getting ready to watch the eaglets hatch.

Night video is infrared, so the view is pretty washed out.

The camera is working again. I spotted both parents and one newly hatched Eaglet today.

I see what appears to be a branch moving, but that's all. I'll keep looking in!

Saw the "branch" moving, then the eagle move her head. I'm thinking it would be better viewing & more activity during daylight hours. I will checking in on this tomorrow...thanks for sharing with us.

The update says they don't think the other two eggs will hatch. :(

The Eaglet looks like a baby duckling.

Got a new operating system, so here's a screenshot:

Baby is getting so big, Papa has a hard time keeping it covered.

Funny how the baby was potty trained so quick. It plants it's head on the floor, stretches out it's legs with it's butt hiked up in the air, then, ptoo, shoots it right over the side... or into the pile of sticks beside the tree trunk.

Baby has tail-feathers now and the dark color coming in is really obvious now.
