Wow! Even just watching the eagle sit there and turn its head ... what dignity! Of course, the camera probably isn't just there for our edutainment, or even for research. Very likely it's there primarily as protection against egg and chick thieves. Raptor eggs and chicks are Big Business. Having a video running constantly discourages egg/chick traders from snatching them.

BTW, on our recovery hike last Sunday (day after the Cindy) Trek420 and I watched a falcon at work, swooping and hovering over ground squirrel trails. Pretty thrilling to watch, but the pictures of squirrels (and egret, and sandpiper, and mallards, and Trek's dog) turned out better.
