Cornell University in Ithaca NY has live online bird cams in a Red Tail Hawk nest, and also a Great Blue Heron nest. Amazing, beautiful, and awesome live views of wild nature up close and personal. Hatching happening!
Below are screen shots of the two families. There were three red tail hawk eggs... which have just hatched into three healthy hawklets (eyas). Then, below, are shots of 5 Great Blue Heron eggs... 2 little healthy ugly hatchlings so far ... and 3 more to come!
