NCTC Shepherdstown, West Virginia - Bald Eagle Cam

http://www.fws.gov/nctc/cam/eaglecam.htm
This is a still cam that refreshes every 30 seconds and is on 24 hours a day.
There's also streaming video with sound! LINK

Liberty and Belle have been in this location near the Potomac River since late 2002, built their nest mostly in late 2003 and early 2004, and Belle laid her first egg February 14, 2004. The pair raised two chicks in 2004, one in 2005 and three in 2006; they had three eggs in 2007 but none survived the spring storms; and they raised three chicks in 2008.

Based on past experience, look for eggs in the first half of February, chicks in mid-March, and fledging in early June.

2008-2009 Season:
  • adults seen: one seen September 13, both there November 3rd
  • eggs laid: January 31, 2:14 am; February 2, 7:50 pm; seen February 6, 7:00 pm
  • hatched: March 14, 3:04 pm (36 days for #3); other two eggs did not hatch
  • fledged: May 30, 5:50 am (77 days)
  • last seen: July 31 (139 days ~20 weeks)

Are you viewing this site through Real Player? rtsp://198.185.178.74/encoder/eaglecam.rm

For some reason I can't open it in Real Player. I sent the link to a friend to check it out and he couldn't get it to open either. He did figure it out by the link and I'm now using this link to view this eagle site

Thanks, TFR/Toni! I've changed the link in the first post. Guess they updated the links along with their other housekeeping! Really nice to see the eagles back at the nest - thanks for the pictures, Starr and kittenface! :D

Great pictures, everyone! Nice to see them so ... active! They laid their first egg Feb 4 last year and Feb 6 in 2007 - so I think they're right on track! :D :D

not sure why i cant get it to resize as it is in my folder, but somehow if ya click it it will enlarge :shrug

It looks as if you attached the whole window the picture was in, instead of just the picture - if you click on your attachment, you'll see a lot of empty space highlighted. Which program do you use to save your screen shots, Kim? I'm guessing there's a way to crop the "picture" so it only contains the real picture! Of course, if you did that you'd then need to delete the current attachment and replace it with the new one - not necessarily worth the effort, as we can see the lovely picture of the eagle working on the nest by double clicking. :D

Looks great, Kim! Attachments do seem to have a big empty area beside them - nothing that can be fixed, I'm afraid.

Enjoy ( :ecrolleyes ) the snow - I think we had something like 15 inches yesterday - really glad we didn't have to go anywhere! :D
