2025 Nest Camera

Nest camera

Welcome to the 2025 season of CCCC’s live-streaming Crane Nest Camera:

See below for the current live-stream.

Currently, we are observing cranes in the vicinity, including a pair that we believe to be Eric and Ariel based on their choice of territory.  On April 14 at 4 pm, a crane pair was observed copulating, and we are watching closely for signs of nesting. Later in the evening, the camera crew located a pair of cranes roosting near Eric and Ariel’s former nest site.

Stay tuned, and leave your questions and comments in the blog at the bottom of this page, reach out to us on social media, or email info@coloradocranes.org.

Warning: This is a wild Sandhill Crane nest and anything can happen. While we hope the nest is successful and both eggs hatch, many things can happen to prevent this, including the eggs being infertile, predation of the eggs, chicks or adults, and natural disasters.

Disclaimer: We are livestreaming a wild bird nest and may experience technical problems. We cannot control problems related to mother nature, disrupted signals, etc. If you can’t play the video, try refreshing the webpage.
