The second egg laid by the Decorah Bald Eagles made its appearance around 7:00 p.m. Saturday.

It is estimated the egg was laid at 7:01 p.m., but the view was blocked until later in the night when the mother eagle shifted enough to give a peek from the infrared camera as she rolled her eggs.  Sunday morning a clear view of the two eggs could be seen.
