Sure hope the picture worked! Looks like we have a chick in the Puget Sound nest. I'd notice some fish in the nest for the last couple of days and thought maybe an egg was hatching!

Go to the WDFW page and clikd on the live cam button, scroll down through the choices to get to the Puget Sound camera.

I'm going to see if I can get a better picture of the new eaglet. In the meantime, if you wanna see something REALLY cute, go the the First Light Power website and click on one of the streaming video links. This is the site at the Quabbin Reservoir in Central MA. There are two chicks in the nest, and they're almost a month old. Keep in mind, at this point they're about the size of a chicken.

It does not look like Momma wants visitors!

Were you able to get on the WDFW eagle cam? Since I posted this, I can’t get the Eagle cam page to open. You have to click on the link for one of the Kent WA cams to open the Cam page, then you scroll down to the Puget Sound cam.

I’ve seen some gigantic ones in the rain forest this spring.

No dice on the other eagle cam. Could be my firewall.

That’s a big nest! Looks like everyone is busy.

I have had the best time watching the two eaglets at the Quabbin! I was concerned about the smaller one at the end of the first week. When the parents would bring food, the big one would crowd out the little one, and I was concerned the little one just wasn’t getting strong enough. One day, though, they were getting fed, and the little one just hobbled up and shoved the larger eaglet out of the way to get fed! LOL! I didn’t worry about him after that.

I was just on the First Power life streaming site, and the wind is blowing steadily. You can see the nest swaying, and down below, you can see the sun glinting off waves kicked up on the water. The babies are just resting next to each other on one edge of the nest.
