Conserve Wildlife: Two eggs have hatched at the Duke Farms eagle nest!



Video credit: dukefarms.org



Hatching occurred over the weekend of March 27th, there are two chicks in the nest. Right now feeding sessions are the best time to see the chicks since the parents will sit on or “brood” the chicks to keep them warm and dry. Young eaglets are not able to regulate their own body temperature for a few weeks.
