All year long, a camera livestreamed the life of an eagle’s nest, drawing in loyal viewers from around the world. Each spring, though, the feed shut off for a month, usually the quietest time when the nest sat empty before the eagles returned.But when the camera came back online this year, thousands of people tuned in and were shocked by what they saw: not just an eagle, but a goose, calmly sitting in the nest with her own eggs right beside the eagle’s clutch.
Word spread quickly, and scientists were notified. After reviewing the footage and the location, they concluded that deforestation had left the geese with nowhere safe to build a nest.
