Weller said that they suspect that there are two eaglets, but they can only see one at a time.
The eaglets are currently 21 and 19 days old, according to Weller.
The eaglets are growing in size and mobility. In 50 days, they will be as big as their parents, Scout and Willa.
Weller said that right now, the eaglets are enjoying being close to their mom.
As previously reported, Willa has laid two eggs a year, except for the two years she laid three eggs. Weller said that Willa has laid a total of 18 eggs over the last eight years.
Two eggs per year are usual for the species, Weller said.
Willa and Scout had two eaglets last year, Peace and Liberty, who fledged in June of last year.
