I haven't had the time to observe this nest, one of my favorites, too much this season. I did catch a look at a first pip yesterday afternoon ---and a good sized hole in that egg today. Maybe a new bobble head here tomorrow??

We have a hatch for Egg #2 this morning.
Here they are---definitely 2 eaglets. No official time of hatch yet.
There was a good sized pip in Egg #3 but a half shell from #2 covered it and 3 did not hatch

Here we are at the end of April and the eaglets are getting so big already! Here they are having an afternoon snack. Unfortunately the cam is not too clear this season

I'm afraid I haven't checked in on these eagles much this year - here's a brief summary of the information I've found (mostly on Facebook)
Eggs Laid: February 28, 8:30 pm; March 3, 6:57 pm; March 6, 7:10 pm
Hatched: April 10, 7:30 am (41 days); April 11, 10:45 am (39 days); didn't hatch
Named: R20/Courage; R21/Spirit
Fledged: Courage - July 7, 7:20 am (88 days); Spirit - July 7, 6:44 am (87 days)
Last Seen: Spirit - August 6 (117 days); Courage - August 11 (123 days)
Observers on Facebook saw what looked like a pip in the third egg, and said it appeared that part of the shell from the second egg covered that part of the third egg, making it too hard for the eaglet to break through. I wondered about the fact that the first egg didn't hatch until day 41 - but looking back, day 40 is common for this pair, and the first egg was laid in the evening and hatched in the morning, so really 40-1/2 days.
July 22 - per update on Facebook, one of the fledglings got into a small courtyard at the nearby school and couldn't get out; happily the appropriate people were contacted quickly and were able to capture and release the youngster; they think from the markings that it was R21/Spirit - and believe Spirit is female.
Sounds like a good year at this nest.
