Forget the Panda cam, the Eagle cam is now the talk of the town.

A 24-hour live camera is focused on a Bald Eagle nest in a Tulip Poplar tree at the U.S. National Arborteum and that video feed is capturing the attention of the nation on social media, #dceaglecam.

Earlier this week, one of the eggs began hatching and now viewers are on egg-watch alert for the hatching process to begin on the second egg. That’s called “eaglet watch.”

You can watch live, here.
