Anyone watching the eagles online?

The two I've been watching are the Eagles in DC (National Arboretum) and the one in Decorah, IA.

The DC eagles have 2 chicks that hatched this past week.

The IA eagles have 3 eggs that should start hatching by the end of this week.

It's cool to watch as they grow and as the parents bring back different types of food (fish, squirrels, rabbits, etc...)

I don't have the Iowa site up here at work, but you can find it easy enough by searching "Decorah eagle cam".

Thats pretty cool. Looks like they nabbed a fish for lunch. Half the carcass is still in the nest!

Wait 'til they start brining small animals back when the chicks get older...then see what they do to it!!!

They had a catfish (or sucker) inn the nest earlier this week that was still alive even after they had picked the tail clean to a stump.
Fortunately most of their food has been "dispatched" before it hits the nest or it might damage the nest.
