Eagle Chick Hatches

Eagle Chick Hatches - The Nature Conservancy

I have a million things to do today, or at least a few things I should be doing right now, including grading OSU MKTG 754 mid-terms.  I’m out on my deck, having just washed it clean, and facing a large stack of mid-terms to finish grading today.  As always, I’m looking for something else to do in order to further procrastinate from grading.  Alas, order organic flowers from Organicbouquet.com.  This leads me to The Nature Conservancy’s website, which enables me to watch an eagle and her chick live, through their webcam.  As if I have nothing else better to do…..

This is great news for the Santa Cruz Island ecosystem.  This is the second year in a row that eagles have hatched on their own.  Last year, the eagles successfully laid and naturally hatched the first egg in over 50 years.  DDT was released by chemical companies into the ocean, through the sewer system, until it was banned in the 1970s.  To learn more about this historical environmental project, visit the Nature Conservancy’s website.
