At the U.S. National Arboretum, both eagle parents settled on their nest to warm their eggs, and each other, through the cold, icy night.
The proposal would let commercial farms harvest Greater Sage-Grouse and their eggs. But there's no scientific evidence or public interest to support such an endeavor.
Within days of losing their nest, the eagles built a new one and possibly even laid another egg, which would be an unprecedented achievement.
