Live EAGLE NEST CAM :D

[paulnj]

I used to monitor this nest a few years ago, but now they have a live cam. It's 3 miles from my house

It's live on the east coast, so view it in daylight hours

I'm shur that it's REALLY cool but I chose a bad time to check it out all black(stupid night)

 

[paulnj]

hahaha... mom with 3 chicks and dad brings food .

check it as much as you can and watch the progress from 1 week old to fledged eaglets leaving the nest.

The camera is very close to the nest, so you get to see very close footage.

 

[Dan K.]

oh trust me when I wake in the morning I'll check it out!

 

[spykerherps]

Sweet stuff thanks Paul. Bad time of day too, will have to check back.

 

[PacHerp]

wow, that's neat! Thanks Paul...

 

[Nigel4less]

Cool stuff, Paul!

I am glad to share in my love for nature.

Very, very cool, Paul! Our Bald Eagles are on a big come-back here in California, and we have seen several soaring through the hills and mountains not far from our home. It makes me feel good that our National Bird is no longer endangered, and seeing them rearing their young tugs at my heart strings!

that's really cool now tat it's day and I can see clearly now! thank's Paul

 

[T&KBrouse]

That is incredible, Paul. I could just sit and watch them all day.

That's cool. Thanks for posting, Paul.

Glad everyone liked it. I have loved raptors for many years and believe me, they are in decline as a whole. Eagles have made a great comeback and are delisted now, but many other hawk species are declining from west nile, habitat distruction, illegal hunting, poisoning on wintering grounds(south america)... sad if you ask me.

Awareness is the first step to stopping decline

Thanks for the link, Paul! I'll be sure to check in on them often! I saw my first Eagle nest (with babies) when I was in Florida earlier this month. The view was sketchy even through binoculars, but it was still awesome to see them in person!

Nancy, I know a few wildlife photog in FL, so next time you got to florida let me know. I will see if I can locate a close nest for you to view.

I am a birder(you think I know geckos, I know birds far better) and was a wildlife photog for awhile as a job. I documented RARE nesting birds mostly.

Thats awesome paul!

 

[RampantReptiles]

That is pretty awesome.

Back in Rochester, NY where I used to live they have a webcam on the Eastman Kodak building for a nest of peregrine falcons.
Not sure how great the cam is since its dark but here is a link

[paulnj]

I may be wrong, but I think falcons nest a bit later in the season. Most raptors are still migrating back to summering grounds.

 

[RampantReptiles]

lol that would be why there isnt anyone there!
Well when they are there, thats the camera

 

[paulnj]

I have seen that cam in past years and it was very cool.
