I check in on them from time to time. I was hooked on them last year though...so much so, that I would pretty much leave one of the computers turned on to them all the time while I was home.

That's where I'm at this year. I've got an old laptop running Ubuntu that I keep the site up on. I think those are some good sized fish they're dining on. I finally watched the tutorial on being able to identify the male and female parents, makes it even more interesting.

Nope but I might be turkey hunting not far from there this weekend.
The farms I hunt have tons of eagles, cool to watch them flying around. They also dig the tasty gut piles I leave for them. I pull my deer out in the open to gut them. Eagles can't fly into the woods to get at them.

Dave,

You may have met my brother-in-law and my nephew, Doug and Wes Dvorak. Both are into bow hunting for deer and turkey. They usually have lots of eagle around where they live (southwest of Dysart).

I find it very interesting to watch. We have quite a few up at our cabin in northern WI...Don't get to see them like that though! I watch all those nature shows, but getting to see them this way is amazing.

I tune in on the Decorah eagle cam every now and then. I'm glad the species is making a comeback. I live a mile south of downtown Des Moines, Iowa. We have a pair of bald eagles who built a nest this spring a mile northwest of us. It's really cool to see them fly over our house. I'm a biologist and coincidentally I'm involved with a research project dealing with what urban raptors eat. Go Eagles!

We check in on them every once in awhile. My son's class watches them a couple times each week at school.

Very cool stuff.
