About the Arconic Bald Eagles
A pair of Bald Eagles joined the Arconic Davenport Works community in Iowa in 2009. They built their 7-foot nest on our 400-acre facility in a tree near the Mississippi River.
In the spring of 2010 they fledged a pair of eaglets and later that year we installed our first Eaglecam. Employees and the community helped name the eagle parents Liberty and Justice. Since the spring of 2010, Liberty and Justice have fledged 16 eaglets from this nest. The first two eaglets fledged in summer 2010 before the camera was installed they were never named.
The 14 that have fledged since then are named: Freedom, Spirit, Faith, Hope, Honor, Glory, Rudy, Star, Sky, Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, Windy and Storm.
Since the camera was installed, 35 million visitors from around the world have tuned in to witness an American icon, the Bald Eagle, developing live within this unique eco-system. In the fall and winter the eagles use the nest to eat and prepare the nest for the next season.
Eagles nesting in Iowa typically lay eggs in mid-late February and the eggs hatch in mid-late March. The eaglets grow quickly and are ready to fly 'fledge' in late May or early June. 'Arconic is proud that our unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability is helping conserve our precious natural resources,' the eagle cam website says.
