The first bald eagle egg hatched at approximately 7:21 a.m. Wednesday, the American Eagle Foundation confirmed. The second egg is due to hatch any day now.
One of the eaglets made a tiny crack, known as a “pip,” in its shell around 10:15 a.m. Tuesday. Now, the next big thing to look out for is the eaglet’s first feeding by its parents.
