RLW,
I don't know if you watch the eagle cam at Norfolk Botanical Gardens or not but thought of you and Decorah when I saw this. The female eagle was killed today near the Norfolk International Airport. I checked the live cam a few minutes ago and thankfully, the father returned to the nest, after being gone all day, with a fish for the 3 chicks.
