Eaglet of Harriet the Eagle, M15 hatches

Published: Updated:

NORTH FORT MYERS, Fla.- Thousands of people are monitoring the Southwest Florida Eagle Cam for a glimpse of Harriet and M-15’s eaglet that hatched Tuesday morning.

The eagle that hatched on Tuesday was laid by Harriet the bald eagle on Dec. 19, and was followed by a second egg on Dec. 22. It’s possible the second egg will hatch in the next few days.

Eagle watchers are very excited about the new addition to the nest.

“So now we have the new male and Harriet has begun to be a mommy all over again and it’s great.”
