Title: Decorah Eagles
Post by: Muffin on April 17, 2011, 06:40:09 AM
The Raptor Resource Project brings you the Decorah Eagles from atop their tree at the fish hatchery in Decorah, Iowa.

The live video feed is streamed online 24/7. At night an infrared light provides night vision to viewers through the cam. Infrared light is not visible to eagles, they do not see it or know it is there.

I've been hearing a lot of rave reviews about this site!
My stays online have been brief ones this past week - I look forward to a block of time when I can enjoy it.

There are 3 eaglets, and it's feeding time right now.  ::)

When I viewed it, there were 2 adults feeding the little ones, but the little ones weren't in view. One of the adults had his/her fanny to the camera: that one had beautiful feathers!

Yeah, he/she came back just now from the supermarket with fresh food. Before that, the other was feeding them alone.
