Blue Springs’ resident bald eagles, Freedom and Liberty, now have three eggs in their nest, as visible on their live feed Monday morning.
Blue Springs and the state conservation department set up Missouri’s only bald eagle live camera feed to watch the birds in March 2025. In that time, the eagles have not successfully laid any eggs — until now.
Bald eagles typically lay one to three eggs per season. Freedom and Liberty's first showed up last week, with the second and third following days later.
Blue Springs Mayor Chris Lievsay said in a statement that the eggs' arrival is timely, as the United States of America celebrates its 250th birthday this year.
“This is an exciting and meaningful moment for Blue Springs,” Lievsay said. “Seeing our local bald eagles reach this milestone, especially during such a historic year for our country, reminds us how closely our community’s future is tied to the care of our environment.”
The Missouri Department of Conservation established the camera feed in partnership with the City of Blue Springs, Evergy, Capital Electric Line Builders, Axis Communications and Wild Souls Wildlife Rehabilitation.
Viewers can access the live feed here on YouTube to see the pair 24/7 as they embark on their journey to parenthood.
