High in their treetop nests, this biologist discovered the truth about eagles

https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/high-in-their-treetop-nests-this-biologist-discovered-the-truth-about-eagles/2016/08/12/13d57ac0-5a5d-11e6-9767-f6c947fd0cb8_story.html


Thanks for posting this article. My favorite quote is "There are four nests in the Chesapeake Bay area with four babies each."

Would love to see 4 Eaglets on a nest cam next season. Until then, will have to be happy with the 4 on the nest in a youtube video.
