Oh, it seems the egg has broken open and there's no eaglet inside after all. It was just announced on the CBC that the egg appears not to have been fertilized. I just checked the eagle-cam and the egg is completely broken apart, and the eagle in the nest was breaking it apart with her (his?) beak. Eating the shell?
Word is that a nest with new hatchlings has been located on Vancouver island, and the video feed will be changed to that nest, so that we can watch as the babies are raised.
