Bald Eagle Egg Laid In Nest Near Avon Lake: Watch

AVON LAKE, OH — In what has become a semi-annual tradition, two bald eagles have returned to their nest outside of an Avon Lake school and laid an egg.

The eagles — named Stars and Stripes by the students of Redwood Elementary — laid an egg at 8:30 p.m. on Monday. Additional eggs could arrive this week, a school spokesperson said.

Birdwatchers and supporters of all things cute can drop in and watch Stars and Stripes and their budding eagle family via a YouTube livestream that runs all day, every day.

The Avon Lake Schools built out a camera system that allows watchers to monitor the bald eagles and their eggs. The district also created a Facebook page, called Avon Lake Bald Eagles Nest, where followers can get the latest updates on the birds.

Last year, three baby bald eagles hatched around Easter in the nest.
