Join webcam crowd: Pennsylvania eagle eggs about to hatch
Bald eagles whose nesting behavior has played out to hundreds of thousands of people via a Pennsylvania Game Commission eagle cam are likely about to add to the head count.
The eagle pair at Codorus State Park in Hanover, Pa. , can expect one or both of its eggs to hatch as soon as March 21.
Follow this link to reach the live cam. Use this link to review time-lapse footage of past behavior, including the snowstorm that buried a nest-sitting eagle to its neck.
The following image is a still photo of the live cam; it doesn’t have any functionality on this blog and won’t play if you click the arrow button. You must visit the site at the above link to activate the live cam stream.
The first egg was laid on Feb. 14 and the second Feb. 17. The Game Commission said bald eagle eggs usually are incubated for 35 days. Day 35 for the first egg is March 21.
Follow the eagles’ progress on Twitter via #eggwatch. The Game Commission asks that if you should see an eaglet hatching from an egg, tag the Pennsylvania Game Commission on social media and use #HanoverEagletNews.
