The first bald eagle egg of the season was laid at the National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown on Monday, according to WBOY 12 News. This live Eaglecam provides a unique opportunity for residents, especially those in nearby towns like Ranson and Harpers Ferry, to observe the nesting process and eventual hatching of the chicks, anticipated in mid-March. The training center features both an upper 22-year-old nest and a new lower nest that has also seen activity. Unfortunately, the two chicks from last year did not survive, but the current egg offers hope for successful hatching this season.
