There is at least one Eaglet in the nest, east of Monticello.

Eagles lay from one to three eggs. Five to ten days after a successful copulation, the female lays a speckled off-white or buff colored egg about 2 1/4" X 3" in size, weighing about 4.5 oz. The second egg is laid a few days later, followed by a possible third.

During incubation, 98% of the time one parent remains on the nest; not only to keep the eggs warm but to protect them other animals which will break open and eat the eggs.
