From the Radiolab podcast: Look up in the sky! It is something that scientists thought could never happen.

This episode comes from the Radiolab for Kids series Terrestrials. A new season of Terrestrials kicks off in September 2024 in the Radiolab for Kids podcast feed: bit.ly/4cfL7BW

High above the banks of the Mississippi river, a nest holds the secret life of one of America’s most patriotic creatures. Their story puzzles scientists, reinforces indigenous wisdom, and wows audiences, all thanks to a park ranger named Ed, and a well-placed webcam. If you want to spoil the mystery, here ya go: it’s a bald eagle. Actually, it’s three bald eagles. A mama bird and daddies make a home together for more than a decade and give new meaning to our national symbol.
