for Monday May 13, 2002
They've been together through both the good and bad times since 1993. Now, the most intimate details of their family life are being revealed publicly via "live" action cameras on the World Wide Web. The "happy couple" is a pair of non-releasable Bald Eagles named "LIBERTY" and "JUSTICE", cared for by the non-profit American Eagle Foundation home--based at Dolly Parton's Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. On April 25, 2002, the world watched them become proud parents when a beautiful baby arrived in their love nest. The eaglet is scheduled for release into the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains this July when fully grown at twelve-weeks of age. "The little one recently survived a hail and thunder storm thanks to the awesome body shield provided by the parents", said Al Cecere, president of the American Eagle Foundation (http://www.eagles.org), "It was a real on-line TV drama that day, and we prayed for a happy ending". Supporting members of the organization are being offered a chance to participate in a "Name An American Eaglet" Contest. On July 4, 2002, one lucky member
will be awarded the regal right to name the young bird, plus the rare privilege
of being on hand to witness its release into nature. The winner of
this special honor will be selected through a random drawing. Anyone
becoming a member by July 1, 2002 will be eligible to
More than 80,000 schools from across
the United States have been invited by the Foundation to tune into this
fascinating "nest-watch" adventure and enjoy the special learning benefits
it provides. Through the miracle of Internet and video technology,
people around the globe will be able to keep a close eye on this
"Everyone is welcome to drop by and visit this great website. It's a wonderful opportunity to witness God's magnificent creation", says Cecere, "You'll see these faithful mates tending to daily nesting duties and displaying their affection. You may even get a chance to see them tenderly caring for and feeding their newest pride and joy". On June 7, 2002, the Foundation plans
to remove the eaglet from its parents nest and place it in an artificial
nesting tower over-looking a secluded lake cove in East Tennessee.
In mid July, after spending about six weeks in the tower, the bird will
be released into the wild and tracked with a radio transmitter to help
Two
video cameras keep a close electronic eye on the eagles from different
vantage points, and can be viewed during daylight hours, Eastern Standard
Time (USA). One camera is placed directly over the nest and another
provides a side view into the nest. Video-streamed "live action"
images are provided in
The eagle nest cams can be accessed at http://www.eagles.org , an educational website presented by the Foundation. "For the benefit of future generations, we must all do our part to keep America's eagles flying strong and free into the twenty-first century and beyond," says Cecere, "You won't want to miss this unique and exciting internet nature experience. You're certain to see true love in action. Two Eaglet Photos Can Be Downloaded
