Two Eaglets Hatched!!

Well, while I was puttering away in the house, the Decorah eagles were busy hatching their eggs!! Two have successfully hatched with one that they are still lovingly waiting on. You can watch the video and check it out! It is awesome!!

Last year, thousands of people watched as these two eagles successfully hatched three eggs. They are naming them in an unlikely fashion D1, D2 and so on. D12 and D13 are the latest. The  Raptor Resource Project has been filming eagles like this for five years now, according to Bob Anderson.

Anderson is proud of another eagle project, D1. D1 was from the Decorah Eagles brrod last year.  She has been fitted with a solar powered satellite tracking device which allows us to track her. The bird was in northern Wisconsin, the Boundary Waters, and then returned to Decorah December 29th, 2011. Anderson said  “As of last night D1 was south of Spillville, Iowa on the Turkey River.”


Once the site comes up, I will add it to the post so that you can track D1 on her journey!!

It is such a wonderful adventure watching these beautiful birds!! Enjoy!!
