They actually have another nest out of camera range but nearby, they raised their chicks there for a couple of years a while back. I don't know if that one was affected by the storm.

Well, it looks like the Decorah eaglecam is done for a while. Here's the Raptor Resource blog post on that:
Raptor Resource Project Blog: Decorah: the eagles, N2, and our plans
The Alcoa eaglecams are still operating, so there's that.
I think the Alcoa eagles are younger than the Decorah eagles. The past couple of seasons there's only been one egg in the Alcoa nest, and last season it was broken. We'll hope they have a better season this time.
The people who ran the camera in Decorah are building the base for an eagle's nest next to the old site to see if there are any takers:
Raptor Resource Project Blog: N2B, or the New Decorah Nest
And they are considering putting a camera at a rather huge nest in the area just north of where the original nest cam was (a nest that is seven by nine feet in size and could weigh around 1700 pounds, how about that):

Might be something to see here before too long after all...
Looks like the Decorah nest cam is back online, although there was nothing going on there the last time I checked.
Still nothing going on at the Decorah nest, but there was an eagle at the Alcoa nest. It was eating a squirrel by the looks of the fur blowing around. No eggs there yet, though.
Very interesting

We've all been speculating why Dad Decorah keeps whittling,
and this came into view. Dad Loves Mom ... and We Love You!

We have an egg! The first egg in Decorah was laid tonight at 8:28pm central time. Congratulations to Mom and Dad Decorah, a huge thanks to John for his camera work, and a toast to Bob, the board, our wonderful volunteers, and the bridge that carries us over
