Eagle Cam
NOTICE:
6/25/2020. One of our staff members saw an adult with two juveniles flying over the property. It is assumed that these Bald eagles are from the Duke Farms Nest. Successful fledges!
5/6/2020, 3:45 pm. After several days of troubleshooting with various team members, we now have confirmation that there is a hardware issue within the nest tree itself. We are unable to enter the area until the end of the nesting season (January 1 through August 1), per NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife guidelines for protecting Bald eagle nests from human disturbance. What does this all mean? The cam is down for the remainder of the season, and we will make repairs after August 1.
4/30/2020, 8:30 pm. A storm just blew through Hillsborough. Powerlines are down, including the power to the cam. No ETA on power restoration yet. Thanks!
In 2008, Duke Farms installed a webcam on a tree adjacent to a Bald Eagle nest to provide a live look at the daily lives of the eagles. In partnership with The Conserve Wildlife Foundation of New Jersey, lesson plans were created to facilitate place-based educational opportunities for students. Between the general public and classrooms up and down the east coast, the Duke Farms Eagle Cam has many fans – over 10 million viewers and growing!
