D.C.’s most famous bald eagles have no baby this year

Sad news: No eaglet hatched this spring for D.C.’s most famous bald eagle couple.

For years, the feathered pair — Mr. President and Lotus, short for Lady of the United States — have done well in a nest at the U.S. National Arboretum. But Friday, D.C. wildlife biologist Dan Rauch said he went out and looked and looked and looked but there was no visible eaglet in the nest and there were no signs of the parents.
