Nature Done Wright

    One of the bird-cams I am highlighting in my article The Record this Sunday is an eagle cam in Maine.

   A friend passed along this report from Wing Goodale of the Biodiversity Research Institute:

   "Despite laying eggs on the coldest day of the year and weathering intense winter storms, a Maine eagle pair has hatched a chick before a live Internet camera trained on a nest 70 feet off the ground in Hancock County, Maine.

… “We are ecstatic,” says eagle cam project director Wing Goodale. “All the evidence indicated that the nest had failed, but this morning we were astonished to see a chick.”

  I notice that the site has a loon-cam as well.  Might want to check it out.

  What’s more, the New Jersey DEP’s Peregrine falcon-cam in Jersey City is now up-and-running as well.

   Here’s the link: Falcon-cam

   These cams feature live video, so you’ll see a lot more images — and much more current images — than on this blog. 

   The other cams, however, do not feature Mrs. Ace, who continues to sit on four eggs.
