The National Arboretum is a beautiful place to grow up and explore.  No gloves required just patience.

1 EGG, WRONG NEST
Feb. 9, 2023
Good news / bad news.  The pair built a new nest.  They have an egg.  But no cam.

2/4/23 – Update
A second eagle nest was discovered on Arboretum property, closer to the river and golf course. Through photos and ground observations we have a positively identified the pair of eagles as Mr. President and Lotus.
