Last year I linked you to an eagle cam — a camera showing an eagle’s nest with new babies, located near Sidney on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada. I see that this year they have a brand new camera in a brand new nest, and the eagles are there with their babies again!

A guy going around town voicing what would be his twitter commentary. Wish I could include the actual video here for my archives, but it doesn’t have an embed link so you’ll have to click to see it.

Three eggs last week, this week 3 eaglets hatched. The babies look like they’re wearing sunglasses. If you wait a while, the mom and dad change shifts to take their turn at nest-sitting and feeding the babies. One of my email buddies said they saw Mom bring a live gopher to the nest!
Here’s a tip. Leave the page open in the background with the sound on. You can hear the eaglet when he’s out; sounds different from the background birds. And when the parents change shift, there’s some loud eagle sounds.

Hummingbirds are one of my favorites. This video features a group “that have been getting fed and returning to this location on a regular basis for over thirty years” near BC Ferries’ Saltery Bay terminal.

Here’s the link to the original site if you can’t see the video here on my page:
