A couple more screen shots from an eagle cam in Washington, D.C. I may only add to this periodically from now on since at the moment, all the shots are pretty much the same.
I did learn yesterday that the nest is actually on the grounds of a firefighting training facility that isn’t open to the public. We of course couldn’t see the nest from the highway below.
The parents, Liberty and Justice, have a nest on police academy grounds by the Anacostia River, and two eaglets hatched between March 17 and 19.
Liberty and Justice built their nest in 2005 and have raised one or two young every year since. They were named by former Police Chief Cathy Lanier, on the day of the Boston Bombing. She called a press conference at the eagle's nest to name them.
The eagle cam feed can be found at http://www.eaglecam.org
