Suz, a million thanks for this site. Wow, I got addicted within a minute. Needed to do some housework and just kept right on watching. She/he is so alert to everything going on. Watched the eggs being turned and the "housekeeping" going on. The background noise just adds to the overall enjoyment.
I can't wait to pull it up again!

I had a look at this site yesterday. It was great to see the eagle on the nest but I was very dissapointed that the footage is almost constantly frozen. If you watch for say 10 minutes, less than 10 seconds (intermittent) was 'live'
 . The background noise was on for most of the time, but it was really frustrating to hear interesting footage but not be able to view it. Has anyone else had any problems?Lindi

Well mine some time freezes up but then goes back on i think tis just because there fixing it or somthing?
But so far mine works fine i got to see everything at once first... I heard eagle calls in the background then the father on the nest responded to them and actually stood up off the eggs boping his head up and down greeting the female then he flew of the eggs and the female went on them making her goodbye calls to the male as he left it was the best part soo far.

Christina, I am so jealous you got to see the switch! Isn't this the greatest site! I only see it freeze momentarily.
They also have a forum you can click on and read viewers' comments and see pictures they've taken. Looks like the female has head feathers a little longer than the male. Hurray for the eagles.

The live cam loads faster and might not freeze up as much if you delete the "default.asp" part of the address before hitting "go" ...

Oooo, I just discovered this can be viewed on a full screen.
Right-click on the eagle and then drag your cursor to the right of "zoom" over to "full screen"  Oh, I'm sure some of you already knew that..   Carol Last edited by JoyfulSongTree; 11th April 2006 at 05:19 PM.

Carol, no I didn't know that and I'll try it tomorrow. Glad I'm not the only one who has fallen for the eagles. They are just wonderful.

This site is a very addictive one, thanks for posting it Suz
I read about it in the National Post the other day and of course, forgot all about it until you reminded me The article did indeed say that the viewership on this site is off the charts. There are so many people logging on to watch the eagles that they had to upgrade or are in the process of upgrading just to keep up. It's a wonderful idea these people had and it's also educational at the same time. I love the fact that there is sound with the video as well. I can hear the ravens calling in the background often, probably harrassing each of the eagles as they return to the nest  Christina, I LOVE your animated eagle gif very much too!!!! You seem to find some of the best animated gifs!!!!!!
