You are watching the Decorah Eagle cam. The male Eagle(slightly smaller in size) and female Eagle in like manner help in the incubation of the eggs. The parents help equally in providing food for their offspring. The typical timeline of events every season for the Decorah Eagles pair is as follows.
As fall comes into full swing in October, this nesting pair begins courtship.
Then as time progresses, mating occurs which is around late January to early February. Finally, our favorite time of year, egg-laying! This occurs from mid to end February with cute little eaglets arriving sometime in late March to early April.
About the Decorah Eagles cam
There are currently 2 nests at the hatchery. They have been named N1 and N2B. N1 was rebuilt by RRP in September 2021. N2B is currently empty.
The live cam is currently focused on nest N1. At nest(N1) a new pair of Bald Eagles have moved in. Named HD(hatchery dad and HM(hatchery mom), they have both been busy at the nest mostly in the mornings and evenings getting it prepared for the 2023 nesting season.
The original Decorah Eagles mom and her mate DM2 decided build a nest elsewhere for the spring 2021 and spring 2022 seasons. A pair of Canadian Geese decided to nest at the original Decorah Eagle nest(N2B) in the spring of 2022.
Nesting history can be found here: https://www.farmyou.com/
When will HD and HM lay eggs?
Sometime between mid February and the beginning of March.
What do they eat?
Bald Eagles are opportunistic carnivores. As a matter of fact, they eat fresh meat the easiest way that it’s available to them. The Decorah Eagles diet consists of a lot of fish, small mammals and not to mention, fresh dead carcasses as well. Furthermore, this Eagle pair is fortunate to have a trout hatchery near the nest.
This camera was Set up and is maintained by the Raptor Resource Project, a non-profit organization for the preservation of falcons, eagles, ospreys, hawks, and owls.

Light snow in Dercorah. We are supposed to have snow Wed night into Thurs. Looks like this could be our first real snowfall for the year. Saying 6″ or more and then another snow on Sat. UGH!!! I hate snow.😡
How pretty, thanks for letting us know
😬
That sounds similar to our forecast but not as much snow.
Good morning Becki, Hope you slept well.
I saw the moon just in time, the clouds took over and it’s been snowing for a while now!
Seeing a lot of white already!
Take care, stay safe, be careful! 🤗
here too, starting at 9 am wed. 6 to 8 inches.
Went to CVS to pick up an arc – the one with a really high copay so that always dampens my mood. Then I picked up bird seed. Got two loads of laundry done. Very exciting day!
Hi Carole Ann. What did you mean by pick up an arc? What is that?
What is an arc?
Hi, Have a Good Evening, happy Tuesday, take care, be careful, stay warm 😊
Another Arctic blast is covering most of the country again~ugh, more snow in the forecast😱 3-6″!
Had sunshine yesterday and today, the snow is gone before the next round starts tonight!
Sweet Dreams to All and to All a Good Night, sleep well 😴😇
God Bless America 🙏 Europe too 🙏
Hi BB
Thank goodness your snow doesnt last too long.
Hi Ardyth, I’m happy the clouds went away so the sun could shine and melt the snow!
It’s going to be Freezing this week, the snow will probably stick around longer ?🙄
Looked out and saw the Full Moon💛, probably the last chance I get to see it this week?!
They say we will get rain Friday so we’ll see. We havent had any this winter so the wild flowers will be slim this spring.
Hope you get some rain, not spring without some flowers! 🌼🌺🌻
Can you see the moon yet?
It is too late for the wold flowers now…the rain has to come in Dec/Jan
It is daylight still, i will go look
😕
I see it!!🌑
Nice Picture 😘 Still daylight here too, I see about the same as the picture 💖
I took it just for you 💗
Have a good evening Bons. Stay warm!
Hi Carole Ann, you too, is snow in your forecast?
Made a chic/chees/broc casserole other night. I just needed to heat it up in the oven, but i got distracted and forgot it, so it baked 1 hr.15 mins. totally overdone but not burnt, so im gonna go try to make soup out of it. or something. grrr
My aunt used to make chicken divan with a white wine sauce, bet soup will still be good.
Hi Joyce, enjoy the soup 😀
Oh no! Hope it makes good soup.
Sorry about that. Hopefully the soup is good.
Probably just add a little milk and bring to serving temperature and it will be good.
Nice and sunny, still cold. Didnt take a nap but i could have used one, dragging all day. Mos hoodie arrived today, its cute and a tad large but better that than tight. Ha, the hood kept falling over her eyes and couldnt see. Well made too. So shes all set for the snow tomorrow night.
You will have to take a picture of her.
I have a coat like that. hood to long so i velcroed it back.
Better to have her protected. Like Ardy said we will want to see a picture of her it.
We need a pic of her. Hope it keeps her warm.
