Waxman Staff Writer Feb 16, 2016 6:01 PM UTC The eagles have landed! Birders can now go online and watch a pair of bald eagles — dubbed “Mr. President” and “The First Lady” — nest at the United States National Arboretum in Washington, D.C. via two 24/7 solar-powered, live-streaming cameras set up by the American Eagle Foundation. “The First Lady” laid an egg on February 10 and a second on Valentine’s Day, eggs that are expected to hatch mid-March. The couple set up camp atop a Tulip Poplar tree surrounded by the arboretum’s azaleas and overlooking the Anacostia River in October 2014 — the first time a bald eagle pair has nested in that location since 1947, according to a [news release](http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/mr-president--the-first-lady-have-laid-eggs-watch-live-in-high-definition-at-eaglesorg-300219998.html). They raised a “healthy eaglet” in the spring and summer of 2015.
