No, it's not what you think. It's a webcam set up beside an Eagles' nest on Hornby Island in British Columbia, Canada.

This eagle couple has one baby (so cuuuute!) and one egg that hasn't hatched (and probably won't now).

Since I learned about this link, I've been tuning in regularly to see what they're doing -it's addictive.

Oh, LB! They're so cute! I admit that, primarily, I was intrigued by the title of this thread as an Eagle (you know who!) lover! ... but I wasn't let down at all! It's always fascinating to see the parenting instinct of such creatures! Thanks for sharing!

One of the eagles just topped Baby with some nesting material. Some sort of raptorial version of tucking Baby into bed, or just being messy? (And Baby's too young to get around the nest, yet.)

Could be messiness. I've noticed that sometimes there are fish in the nest that aren't quite dead, and occasionally start flopping around, or quite dead (attracting flies).

What's funny to me is that the baby's name (bestowed by the people who run the camera) is "Phoenix".

Brissy's got Frodocam.

For a number of years we've had a pair of Peregrine Falcons who set up home on a ledge of one of our most prestigous inner-city apartment buildings/hotels.

They've been nesting there since 1999 and the cam has been going since 2003.

Frodocam

It's quiet at the moment because the nesting season hasn't begun, but when it does, they're there in force.

Little buggers seem to know the camera is there and often "play" to it.

Thank you LB for posting this link. I have enjoyed watch this baby eagle grow over the last few weeks.

I love seeing young birds grow up. A few years ago I had a link to watch some baby hummingbirds as they hatched, grew and fledged.


Maddy I will have to keep an eye on that cam. and see when things start happening there.

"Phoenix" has grown a lot in last few weeks, hasn't he/she? Now baby hummingbirds, they must have been very tiny!

Yes they were tiny, but I suspect the camera had telephoto on all the time so we could see better.

Phoenix and the eagles here are much larger and would not need that adjustment, but it is amazing what can be captured on "film" these days.

Yeah, we have a falcon cam here in Indy too, Our Peregrines are Kinney and Kathy Q. Right now their little one are fledging and it is a nervous time. In fact, there's a big search on right now because one of the fledgelings went missing the other day and day before yestereday some people saw a banded bird on the windshield of a car. Instead of calling anyone, they were taking pictures of it when the owner of the car jumps in and takes off, with the poor bird still on her windshield. All we know is that it was one of the female juviniles. They found one female down this morning and returned her safely to where she belongs, but we don't think it was the one that went for the unscheduled ride.

Just a side note: Kinney is one of the oldest Peregrines around at 17 years and he's the most prolific of all of them on record in the Midwest Database here in the US. This year saw his 55th-58th offspring hatch.

Sorry to be so longwinded, but I've become hooked on these birds.flying
