It wasn't Diane on Sunday and it was a 6:00 show, so it aired just before 6:30.  They did a nice feature on it, though.  Our local stations have been covering it.  There are two eaglets as of Sunday morning and the third is expected any time.  It is SO adorable when they feed them.  They are a fuzzy gray and I think the 2nd is as big as the first.

I thought that some here would be interested in this and so hope it's all right to post something so far off topic.

We recently had a pair of bald eagles make a nest here (Pittsburgh, PA). Apparently, it’s been about 200 years since they’ve been in this area. It shows that the environment has really improved. There are also 2 other nests in the vicinity. This same pair was here last year and raised one eaglet. This time she laid 3 eggs (apparently 3 is unusual). The first hatched on Friday and the second this morning, so presumably a couple of days for the other.

They have a camera on the nest so one can watch them all day! At night it turns black and white. Occasionally they pan around the area, especially if they are trying to locate the other one or something is happening. One night a raccoon got to the nest and the female chased it off. A few days ago a hawk was circling the tree. It’s really fascinating!! If one is watching at the right moment, you get to see both of them together as they change places. And now, when they get up, you can see the eaglets and watch them feed them.  At this point they are still under the parent with the remaining egg.  There is also an archive where one can go back and check anything interesting.

Someone said that Diane Sawyer would have it on the news tonight at 6:30.

So, in case anyone is interested in watching, here’s the link:
http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/hays-bald-eagle-cam/
That one has a chat and many are very knowledgeable.  That's how I get most of my information.

There is also another link  http://www.ustream.tv/channel/pittsburgh-bald-eagles/theater, or one can go to the website of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and they have a link.

The archives are at:  http://beta.wildearth.tv/video-archives.  That was down earlier today, but seems to be back now.  The archive includes cameras for lots of other things, too.  This one is Pittsburgh Bald Eagles.  I usually choose “every minute” - it doesn’t take long to scroll through them and then one can find the exact spot one wants.

Questions on latest episode.

[spoiler]When Katherine took over Elena, it was very important to her and Nadia to get rid of the body so that Elena couldn't reassert herself, as she did a few times.  Supposedly that would completely end Elena.  I assumed they would find a way around that to bring her back, but there was no explanation of it or even showing her come back.  Suddenly she's just there again.[/spoiler]

It's the same character.  I guess he met her the first time; I don't recall the scene, and this time he was apparently going with her.  But, both appearances were so "extremely" brief.  While it seems to be a rather minor plot line, each time it was so short as to almost not be worth having it.  I don't know anything else about the series; those are the only 2 episodes I've seen.  It was nice seeing her, though.
