At approximately 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 5, 2016, American Bald Eagle Liberty laid her second egg of the season. If a third egg is in her future, it should arrive Monday, March 7, or Tuesday, March 8.
For a bird’s-eye-view of the spring ritual, copy and bookmark this link to the site: http://www.alcoa.com/locations/usa_davenport/en/info_page/eaglecam.asp.
The Tree Top View is better for watching the eagle couple move in and out of the nest, mend or defend it, and feed. The egg is too low to be seen. Select the Nest View–as seen above–to see the lower portion of the aerie.
