The past two seasons have been tough for the Hanover Nest Eagles. No chicks hatched either. Last season, viewers watched patiently as the pair of adult eagles take turns incubating their clutch of two eggs, but by the end of March the eggs still had not hatched and were deemed non-viable.

Eagle enthusiasts everywhere hope this year will be different.

“Comcast Business is proud to partner again with HDOnTap to provide fast, reliable and secure internet service that will allow nature enthusiasts to continue to observe and discover these incredible bald eagles,” said Aaron Mimran, vice president of Comcast Business for the company’s Keystone region. .
