LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. — The eagle population in Loudoun County is about to grow a little bit bigger after the birth of an eaglet this week.
On Wednesday, Dulles Greenway Eagles made a Facebook announcement of the hatching of DG3, which happened around 11:20 a.m. on Tuesday. Rosa and Martin, the two bald eagles that are found nested at the Dulles Greenway Wetlands since 2005, are the parents of their newest addition.
