Sandy, an inexperienced eagle plunged from the precarious nest earlier this week. The bird lost its footing while perched in a towering tree and hit the forest floor. An unobtrusive live webcam captured the drama and now streams nonstop as officials and locals hunt for the eaglet.
Park rangers are diligently checking the area for possible signs injury. The camera has been pulling thousands of viewers from across the region. It will stay online until the eaglet is found or considered missing.
