Bald Eagle live web cam

http://www.suttoncenter.org/eaglecam.html

The Sutton Avian Research Center is dedicated to finding cooperative conservation solutions
for birds and the natural world through science and education,
and is a part of the Oklahoma Biological Survey at the University of Oklahoma.

Our Bald Eagle nest cam provides an intimate view of a wild Oklahoma Bald Eagle nest. Children and adults from
Oklahoma and around the world can observe life in an eagle nest, and scientists can make observations that will
help us better understand the life history of our national symbol.

This nest is on OG&E property at Sooner Lake near Stillwater, Oklahoma. The original dead nest tree used by this pair of eagles fell down. OG&E,
with technical assistance from the Sutton Center, erected an artificial tower which these eagles have adopted successfully.
For additional information about nesting Bald Eagles, scroll down this page.

1. Very cool.
I see the juvenile and the parents at the nest right now. The bald eagles I like to watch in Llano, Texas have already headed back north I believe.

4. We're fortunate here in northeast ok for having the right habitat for them to nest
its nothing to go up by the lake and see several flying around and occasionally diving for a fish

2. I saw two bald eagles yesterday
An immature and an adult. They were fishing a hundred yards off shore - until the local crows chased them off. The local ospreys are already on their eggs...

We can thank the US ban on DDT for their comeback.

6. A good example in how we can make a difference
both in almost destroying them and especially a lesson learned in saving them. That is one of the many reasons I have faith in our turning this global warming around and holding this illegal waring cabal in the WH responsible for the many crimes they have committed, many of those crimes have been admitted already by them too.

10. Cool.
There are eagles nesting about 5 miles east of where I work; I sometimes stop by after work with my binoculars.

I saw two bald eagles on treetops on my way to work, coming from the opposite direction, just last week.
