Nest Update, Week of May 8

Tomorrow (Monday, May 9) beginning after 9:30 a.m., the two eaglets will get banded and receive a medical exam, with the banding streamed live on the Eagle Cam Ustream channel .

The  eaglets are now approximately six weeks old.  The young birds stay in the nest for approximately 10 to 12 weeks, until they are large enough and strong enough to leave (fledge). This is typically toward late June. Click the Duke Farms logo at right for our home page.

Later this week: More from the banding.
