The Pittsburgh bald eagle family that rose to Internet stardom via a free live stream of their nest got its newest member Wednesday, when the last of three eggs hatched.

As of Thursday morning the live stream, made available through PixControler, Inc. and the Pennsylvania Game Commission, showed three lively eaglets being tended to by their mother.

According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, 14,500 viewers were watching the live stream as the third egg hatched in the nest, which is located in the Hays neighborhood, about five miles outside of downtown Pittsburgh along the Monongahela River.

The eaglets are being fed on bits of fish and squirrel acquired by their parents. The father eagle has been hunting for food, returning it to the nest to share with the mother, who then tears the meat into tiny pieces and feeds it to the eaglets.

The nesting eagle laid her eggs on Feb. 19, Feb. 22 and Feb. 25, according to camera operator PixController, which hosts the live stream here. The sex of the newly hatched eaglets is unclear. It takes about 35 days for a bald eagle egg to hatch.

The third egg hatched Wednesday afternoon, the second hatched March 30, and the first hatched March 28.

Jim Bonner, executive director of the Audubon Society of Western Pennsylvania, told the Post-Gazette that the young will begin to grow quickly.

"They will develop their second down around 10 days old. During the first few weeks one parent, usually the female, will always be at the nest," he said.

Last year the same pair of bald eagles fledged another chick. Bald eagles enter long-term partnerships with each other, only separating if something were to happen to one of them.

The bald eagle nest has proven to be an attraction not just for curious web users and Pittsburgh residents, but for wildlife as well. According to an Associated Press report, the eagles have had to defend their nest from a raccoon and a hawk that seemed intent on stealing the eggs. Similar predation risk will remain while the eaglets are growing, as will the threats of in-nest hostilities from their siblings, the Post-Gazette reported.

The eaglets are expected to develop wings and feathers large enough for flight by July.
