A Front-Row Seat Inside the Nest
Mounted just above the rim of a massive bald eagle nest, this camera offers an unobstructed overhead view of the cup where the resident pair raises its young. Built and rebuilt from interwoven branches, the nest sits high in the canopy of a mature hardwood forest, giving viewers a rare look at behavior usually hidden from the ground.
Bald Eagles of ND-LEEF
The Notre Dame Linked Experimental Ecosystem Facility is a living research landscape operated by the University of Notre Dame's Environmental Change Initiative. Its eagles have become a beloved symbol of the site, and the in-nest feed lets scientists and the public follow the same family across breeding seasons.
A Protected Research Woodland
Set along the St. Joseph River near South Bend, the surrounding woodland of constructed streams and wetlands supports a rich mix of wildlife. The eagles' presence reflects the healthy, water-rich habitat that makes the facility valuable for both research and conservation.
What You Can Watch For
Patient viewers may catch nest maintenance, food deliveries, incubation shifts, and the growth of downy eaglets into fledglings. A burned-in clock and temperature readout anchor each moment, turning the feed into an ongoing window onto one of North America's most iconic raptors.
