Southwest Florida's most famous couple will soon be welcoming a new addition.

Harriet, a female bald eagle who has been captivating online viewers of the Southwest Florida Eagle Cam for six years, laid an egg Sunday afternoon in her North Fort Myers nest.

Harriet and her mate M15, who are in their second season as a mating pair, will incubate the egg for about a month. 

Harriet moved to this nesting location in 2006 with an eagle known as Ozzie. The two produced several fledglings over the years, but Ozzie died after suffering injuries during a fight with Harriet's current mate, M15
