Even though not visible, this bald eagle's egg or eggs have hatched. Some of the many signs that there are eaglets are: the way she is sitting higher, the fact that food is delivered to the nest by the mate, and both parents looking into the nest together. Very soon we will see the fuzzy head or heads pop up (usually about 10 days or so). She is a local eagle who is waiting patiently for her mate to arrive.
