Watch the Decorah Eagles LIVE 24/7!

A big shoutout to my parents for reminding me that the live video feed is up for the Decorah Eagles. I love sharing the videos with my students every year! This year, 2 out of 3 eggs have already hatched, and the eaglets are only a few days old! It will be so fun to watch them grow up, and how caring their parents are.

Since it's the first day of Spring, it's fitting that we can start checking out the live video feed of the Decorah Eagles. The nest is in Iowa and the live video has thousands of viewers at anytime! You can even check it out at night! There are 3 eggs and the mother and father take turns caring for them. Once they hatch, it's so fun to see the babies feed! The parents are excellent hunters and bring in various prey into the nest!

We checked in on the Decorah eagles this morning and noticed that there are 2 eaglets now! It's really neat to watch them grow and change. It's also super cool to see what the parents bring into the nest to feed them! Watch below . . . you won't be disappointed!

Spring is the time for new beginnings . . . especially in the animal world! For the last few years, a favourite website of Room 31 has been the live stream of the Decorah Eagles.

Just recently, three eaglets have hatched in Decorah, Iowa. The beauty of the live stream allows us to watch them grow up! It is amazing to see the nest up close and how the parents care for their young.

Can you tell the difference between the mom and the dad?

Decorah Eagles: Tips

Just like us in Room 31, my parents really enjoy checking in on the Decorah Eagles on a regular basis. My mom was actually the one to tell me the eggs had hatched and the baby eaglets were on display! Now, thanks to my dad and a Youtube video, we are able to figure out the difference between the mother and father eagle! Youtube is blocked for students at school, but hopefully you can see the video at home! 

Decorah Eagles live on USTREAM

The 7 students that were the Grade 3s in my 3/4 class two years ago will remember watching the Decorah Eagles online. Last year, the eagles made a new nest and no viewings were available. This year, the cameras are up and running! All three eggs have now hatched and the baby eaglets are all different sizes. It's super neat to watch the little ones grow and to see how the parents care for them! Just think, the nest is 5 feet deep, and 6 feet wide . . . that's about the same size as the table group you sit at! Wow! You can see for yourself by clicking below, or on the link on the right side of the blog. Happy Watching! I promise you'll be hooked! Warning: there's a short ad you have to watch before the live stream is shown.

Eagles Update!

This morning, we checked out the Decorah Eagles. We were amazed to see how large the eaglets are! We even saw them "wingercizing"; this is when they stretch out their wings and hop to feel gusts of wind. It was so neat! We think this is the perfect video to watch right now because in Science, the Grade 3s are studying structures and the Grade 4s are studying habitats. The eagle's nest is an awesome natural structure, AND we were able to see more of their habitat when the video controller panned the area! In case you haven't had a chance to check the eagles out lately, I am embedding the video below:

Eagles + Poetry = Our 50th Blog Post!

This week, we have been watching the Decorah Eagles during part of our morning. They always seem to be feeding during this time, so we really get a great view of them! Recently, we started a poetry unit that has been lots of fun, and today, we learned about cinquain poems. Faith was inspired by the eagles today and wrote the following poem:

eagles

cute, fluffy

flying, sitting, standing

I love watching them!

This post also marks our 50th for our blog! To celebrate, we are enjoying some monster cookies! YUM!

Decorah Eagles

I found this live stream of the Decorah Eagles. It's really neat to see the adult eagle adjust the nest and take care of the 3 eggs; which are expected to hatch anytime! Be sure to check back often!
