The American Eagle Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to bald eagles and other raptors. Our hope is to use the RU-vid platform to provide high quality, engaging educational content on conservation, wildlife and birds of prey.
We have LIVE bald eagle nest cams that show how bald eagles act in the wild. Like the nest cam in Northeast Florida featuring Samson and Gabrielle and their eggs, baby eaglets and eventual fledglings. And Mr. President and The First Lady at the nest at the National Arboretum in Washington DC. And we have more coming in the very near future. We have a LIVE stream on Twitch several times a week that provides educational content for anyone who wants to learn more about bald eagles and other birds of prey. You'll see clips of our most famous resident raptor, Challenger the bald eagle, along with our eagles at Eagle Mountain Sanctuary at Dollywood-like Grant and Glenda.
We hope you share in our passion for conservation and education
I can understand the reasoning behind the very stiff penalties for having a bald eagle but what is up with harsh penalties for having a bald eagle feather?
Is this hero the same one they used to let fly inside one of the dinners they had at Dollywood. I got to participate and they prepared me with the glove and shoulder guards. For some reason I thought Hero was a male
Thanks very much for mentioning Challenger and his 35th HatchDay!👍 I hope he's doing well and staying healthy - hadn't heard anything on him in awhile and was worried something happened to him. I'll check out that website. Stephanie
What do you think about stating on the Folsom, CA site that "getting too close" to the nest (may require definition) to the nest or causing stress (crowds, camera flash, shining a flashlight, etc) to the nest while there are eggs/hatchlings could cause one or both parents to abandon the nest, leaving the eggs or chicks?
