Good morning, How are you? I thought I would share a Homeschool Resource for Science with you this morning. The new website is Cornell Lab of Ornithology: Nest Cams
Cornell Lab of Ornithology: Nest Cams
Age Range: All (All grades; children with parental supervision) Bookmark this site now! The Cornell Lab of Ornithology sponsors this website that provides live feed from cameras trained on bird nests. You can watch a wide variety of birds as they tend their nests. See eggs, hatchlings, and watch the mama and papa birds feed their young. This is a fascinating view of the world of birds.
When you get to the site you’ll see some featured birds cams. Click on the one you want to watch or scroll over the Live Cam menu and click on All Cams to see them all including:
- Panama Fruit Feeders
- Red-tailed Hawks
- Savannah Ospreys
- Barred Owls
- and many more!
Click on any one, and a new page opens for your viewing delight. (Some link to other sites with live cams; some are videos of past viewings.)
When you are done watching the birds, be sure to check out the menu for lots of information on birds including courses!

This is a wonderful demonstration of how Science and technology blend to create amazing learning opportunities for us all.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
