N:o. 18 makes it back into the nest from her perch higher in the tree

This is FOLFAN's Eagle Nest Cam, highlighting a pair of nesting bald eagles within the Folsom Lake State Recreation Area. As of this season (2024), we are partnering with The American Eagle Foundation (AEF) to bring our viewers a more dynamic experience. Although you can still watch the live stream here on RUclips, we encourage you to use the AEF website: folfaneaglecam... to view the nest. AEF will have regularly scheduled live chats and Q&As to talk about everything happening in the nest. FOLFAN is fully engaged with the operation of the camera and the chats, as several of our knowledgeable docents are part of the AEF team.
Stats this year (as of 3-29-24)
First hatch - late March 25th or early March 26th
Possible second hatch March 28th
Eggs laid - February 19th, 22nd, and 26th.
Happy viewing!
As with all wildlife viewing, one of the greatest challenges is how to get close enough to view it without disturbing it. We hope this live video feed provides our viewers with an opportunity to observe and learn about these majestic birds while protecting them from disturbance.
To protect these eagles, we are not disclosing the exact location of the nest. However, many visitors know of the location and will visit in person. FOLFAN asks that if you do visit, please minimize noise, stay a safe distance away, and use binoculars, a spotting scope, or a camera with a telephoto lens to safely view the eagles without disturbance.
When telling family and friends about the eagles, please consider sharing this camera feed with them rather than sharing the location of the nest.
As awesome as it is to see the eagles up close with the nest camera, nature can sometimes be difficult to watch and the eagles’ role in nature can take a course that may seem strange or alarming to humans. This camera feed will not be edited for content.
Please also be aware that if something happens to the eagles, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will not allow interference with the natural course of events at the eagle nest.
