It shows where eagles are born, what they eat, and how bald eagles lose their feathers at the age of one month-- u...ntil they become fledglings. At three months, eagles begin flying and learning how to catch food. At four or five years old, their heads and tail feathers are white. Male ealges stretch their wings to six feet, female eagles are bigger and can stretch their wings to eight feet. Adult eagles have babies called eaglets. The vocabulary words featured in this video include: bald eagle, aerie, fledgling, soar, wings, nest, and eaglets.

If it is dusk or evening, the viewer may NOT see anything at that time. Obviously, viewing during the day is best. NOTE: Scroll down slightly for camera feed. This is a live feed to an 'Eagle Cam' that shows eagles in their next. Since this is a live... feed, there is no 'run time'. The live camera feed is on Duke Farms in New Jersey. Did you know that Bald eagle numbers have soared from only one breeding pair in 1973 to over 90 today because of New Jersey’s conservation efforts? On Duke Farms in central New Jersey, the EagleCam allows viewers an up close and personal view into the lives of a pair of bald eagles as they breed, incubate, and raise young.
