I hope WVEC shows some pictures of the eaglets at their new home in the Wildlife Centre of Virginia. I wonder if the male eagle will mourn, like elephants do. I'm sure the male eagle will find a new mate. The female that was just killed lost her "husband" in 2002 to a plane. And she remated ... following instinct I guess.

Apparently she nurtured at least 19 eaglets to maturity. I do love the nature webcams. Now I'll have to satisfy myself with the Decorah Cam and the ones in California, Santa Catalina Island.
