Live Eagle Webcam

Have you seen the webcam of the bald Eagle sitting on her nest waiting for her eggs?

I leave it on sometimes and occassionally hear her calling for her husband.

It can get boring watching her right now, but it will get nice and interesting when those eggs start hatching.

alternate eagle cam without the advertisement

Don't know if it's the same web cam, since all eagles look alike at midnight, but the link above says it's 4 days to egg hatching (Monday April 10 by my calculation)

If you look really close, you can see the white on her face.

It is wild to watch it at night cuz you really have to wait until she turns her head.

It might be the same one, but with separate camera's? Either that or maybe it is a different nest.

Time will tell --

I really am getting addicted to having it on all day long.
I'm getting attached.

playing the video outside the browser

Winddy, that new eaglecam you pointed out is fantastic! But I don't like it playing in the web page, so to pop it out into Windows Media Player (on Windows, of course:) just go to this URL:

mms://array.galaxytelevision.net/hh001

The video should come up in WMP outside the browser. From there you can resize it or even go full screen. Unfortunately, you still get the ad, but that's the price, I guess, for such an amazing view.

looks like two birds in the bush

Unfortunately you can't run more than one instance of media player at a time, so I wasn't able to do an eagle to eagle comparison, but based on the sponsored live cam and the 30 second interval snap shot of the wildlife webcam, it doesn't look like the eagles are moving in unison. So I would guess that the cameras are focused on different nests - or are directly across from one another. Since I don't see another camera in the wildlife cam shot that includes the body of water as background, I would think that the new cam with the trees in the background and again, no sign of different cam in view, is at a different nest.

Perhaps the eggs will not hatch at the same time, and it will be possible to tell for sure...

photon eagles

They'd better not be moving in unison! Apparently, the new cam is in British Columbia and the original is in Maine.

eagle cam

I noticed there are different Eagle cams popping up all over the place. I like the one that I originally found best. I think that one is located in Canada.

Last time I looked she had two chicks but they were getting pretty bird. I think she is encouraging them to fly now!
