The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has unveiled a new EagleCam, offering an intimate glimpse into the lives of a resilient bald eagle pair. This initiative follows the heart-wrenching collapse of a previous nest in April 2023, which captivated and saddened viewers worldwide. The new live stream promises to reignite the passion of eagle enthusiasts and provide educational insights into these majestic creatures.
On April 2, 2023, the original EagleCam nest, home to a devoted eagle pair and their recently hatched chick, tragically fell from its perch. The nest, estimated to weigh over 2,000 pounds due to accumulated ice and snow, was supported by a dead branch that succumbed to the weight. The collapse resulted in the loss of the eaglet, eliciting an outpouring of grief from a global audience that had been following the eagles’ journey via the live stream.
