Yes! As in that musical 1776 where Franklin, Adams, and Jefferson sing about the Congressional incubator hatching the new nation. If memory serves, there's an eagle reference, too.

There was a story on our local news yesterday about some kids finding an injured bald eagle. The authorities came out and captured it, but they said its wing was so badly broken (in nine places) that they thought it best to euthanize it. They said it had probably been hit by a car... Very sad. :(
Yea - the Eagle Has Hatched! Boy - a gaggle of 8th graders. you are a brave woman! I knew I admired you!
Love, Vicky
That is SO cool. I clicked on the pic of the new hatchling with its eyes open, and saw the teeth too! They are incredibly cute babies.
Thanks for sharing this.
