HANOVER — An eagle cam overlooking a bald eagle nest in Pennsylvania has begun live-streaming through the state Game Commission’s website.

The commission installed two high-definition cameras over the nest of two bald eagles near Codorus State Park in Hanover, York County. The commission said infrared technology will provide images 24 hours a day. Microphones within the units will capture the sounds.

A Facebook group donated money to keep the camera rolling after the budget crisis threatened its installation. This is the second time cameras have been installed at a nest 75 feet high in a tree near the state park. About 1.5 million people tuned in last year to watch the birds hatch and raise two eaglets.
