.The stars of this cam are two beautiful bald eagles Liberty is the female and Freedom is the male.

Liberty is believed to be 23. Freedom is her second mate and is believed to be around 10.

Past eaglets include:

2022 Love (GG7) and Peace (GG8)
2021 Kindness (GG6)
2019 Chaak (GG4) and Anaaski (GG5)
2018 Equality (GG2) and Pride (GG3)
2017 Justice (GG1)

This nest area has been active since 2004--- this specific nest we learned about in 2022.

. Glacier Gardens and the bald eagle nest are located in Juneau, in southeast Alaska. This unique botanical garden is located within the Tongass National Forest.

The camera is over some distance from the nest, in a different tree and shows the eagles in real time 24/7.

We avoid performing physical maintenance on the cam during the season, so that we do not add stress for the eagles.

Thanks shoupie for the heads up on the cam being online :woohoo: As I mentioned I am finding it difficult to keep on top of so many nests that I monitor and report on here on the Hancock Forum. Thanks for your preliminary stats and thanks so much to Mary for authoring a new thread for the 2023 nesting season :hug: I appreciate all the hard work done by both of you very much :thumlft: I will be checking in during the nesting season and recording videos whenever time permits.

Good morning everyone :) The cam is offline so I will post a few s'caps I snipped from a video I recorded yesterday morning of Mama & Papa strugging with a big stick. I believe it was Papa who brought the stick in :ohmy: It eventually ended up hanging down the side of the nest. It was very funny to watch :)
