The first of two expected baby bald eagles hatched Monday in Florida, and the heartwarming moments were caught on camera for everyone to see.
The parents, Harriet and her mate M15, have spent more than a month patiently taking turns guarding and incubating the eggs and hunting around their nest, located on the Dick Pritchett Real Estate family farm.A confirmed pip -- a small crack that signals the first sign of a hatching -- was seen on one of the eggs in the bald eagle nest Sunday morning and the baby hatched around 12:45 pm on Monday, according to the farm.
"Harriet and M15 will continue to nurture their eggs until they feel movement and the chick scratches the surface of the egg to break out. Once the hatchling has begun to breathe, it will make soft calls that the adults can hear."While beloved fans were able to watch as the pair took care of their eggs, frequently rolling them and keeping them warm, there were also some terrifying moments for the expecting parents.
