Mom Nurtures Growing Bald Eagle Chicks On Live Stream

BIG BEAR, CA — Sometimes the best reality television is brought to us by Mother Nature. First, there was April the Giraffe, who was pregnant for what seemed like an eternity. Now, we just dare you to watch the above live-streaming footage without letting out an audible "awww."

Atop a tree in the San Bernardino National Forest near Big Bear Lake, a pair of bald eagles made a home. The female laid two eggs in January.

"The pair took turns on the nest during the 35 day incubation period, including through a snow storm," representatives with the U.S. Forest Service said.

The first chick hatched on the morning of Feb. 11. Its sibling followed closely behind, hatching the next afternoon.

All of the action was caught on a live stream camera set up by the nonprofit group Friends of Big Bear Valley. The camera is still up, and providing us a glimpse into this next stage of the birds' lives.
