Outstanding view of a nesting American Eagle
American Eagle TV ^ | 4-24-02

Posted on 04/25/2002 12:55:24 PM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

Ther is the greatest site available on the Web. A Web Cam is aimed right at a nesting American "Bald" Eagle near Minoqua, Wisconsin. You may have seen part of this on Fox and Friends on the Fox News Channel this morning. Go Here to watch the show. Or copy and paste americaneagletv.com into your browser.

The eaglets are due to hatch May 1, and the Web cam will be focused on the parents and the nest until the chicks are grown and have flown away. You need Real Player, which you can download from the site. It also helps to have a fast connection.

There is audio with the picture, so I have been running this behind my other work. Every once in a while I hear a little squawk, and I pop the picture forward and find that the nesting eagle is turning the egg or repositioning herself in the nest. Just a little while ago, her mate flew in with food for her. Both birds remained in the nest for about 5 minutes, and then the hunter flew away in his search for more food.

This should get quite exciting next week, so I hope a lot of people take advantage of this opportunity to watch our great American symbol raise a nest of little ones!

Enjoy!

OK, just lord it over all of us who can't live in VA. I thought that there might be just ONE thing we have in WI besides high taxes and socialist politicians! I'll bet your VA eagles don't have a Web Cam in their nests, however! ;^)
