Conserve Wildlife: Duke Farms EagleCam Update


Live video by Ustream

The pair is now in their fourth week of incubation. We’ve had some rainy weather and more to come. During the rain you can see that the eagle sits tight on the eggs to keep them warm. Eagles have 7,000 feathers and layers of these feathers trap air to insulate birds against cold and protect them from rain.
