It has sure been a rough year at some of our eaglecams this season, and sometimes it seems like all I report is bad news, so I wanted to recap and celebrate how well so many of the nests are doing!

I like getting the updates on the nests, good or bad. Thank you for all your hard work!
Also AEF has another near Dollywood with 3 a week or so behind the DC ones! Eagle Nation!
This was my first year in this new world of Bald Eagles and their eaglets or babies. I started watching Washington DC and the cams were great and I so enjoyed all the cams everywhere and the people who watch, love, and care for these wonderful eagles. I want to thank the news we get on the nests, updates, and comments on our hurt and lost ones. I know that takes work and I am so thankful for all that you, and everyone does with the cams and nests. I will always especially think of Liberty and Freedom, and wish them a wonderful life of gliding high and free.
It’s wonderful to be reminded of all the successes!
