Title: Bald Eagle Fans??
Post by: yote300wsm on April 01, 2011, 08:19:54 PM

Live Cam of a Bald Eagle nest waiting for 3 eggs to hatch. The Bald Eagle has really come back here in the Upper Mississippi region. Pretty cool stuff!

I live near Austin MN and we have 3 nests in the area. 1 about 4 mi north of town and 2 4 mi south of town. Both sites are along the Cedar River.

I'm guessing that it will be taking place near the National Eagle Center in Wabasha MN on the Mississippi. If anyone is in the neighborhood it is definitely worth the visit. You can watch a BUNCH of Eagles snagging carp and mud-hens (coots) out of the Mississippi. I'm lucky, I'm only 80 mi away. Makes for a nice Sunday drive.

Eagles have really made a comeback in our area of central Illinois, on the Illinois river. Thanks for the link.

Love the real time streaming footage idea.
Should get much more interesting once the eaglets hatch.
