The Birds Australia Discovery Centre is an interactive interpretive hub where we provide opportunities for people to learn about and engage with birds in their natural habitat. And what better way to do so than by observing our resident pair of White-bellied Sea-Eagles on the nest! EagleCAM, gives bird lovers, researchers and scientists, 24-hour access into the lives of nesting sea-eagles and allows us to investigate their habitat, habits and how we can help them survive long term.

 

Established in 2009, EagleCAM (Sea-EagleCAM on Ustream) is a live remote feed that operates out of the Discovery Centre in Newington Armory at Sydney Olympic Park, close to the Parramatta River. EagleCAM was started and funded by a small group of Birds Australia volunteers, who continue to develop and operate the technology that brings the sea-eagles to your screen.

 

Despite the collapse of the nesting tree earlier in the year this remarkable couple have built a new nest in double-quick time and recently hatched two chicks. Through EagleCAM, you have a unique and amazing opportunity to follow their progress as the eaglets grow towards fledging.

Please check out our Facebook page Sea-EagleCAM and visit the EagleCAM page on the Birds Australia website for recent video footage from the nest.
