Bald Eagle Tracking Project - August 2003

Red spent August along the Sassafrass River in the northern Chesapeake Bay, just as it had in June and July. Green remained along the tidal Potomac on the Virginia side of the river. Yellow spent the first ten days of the month on the York river and along I-85 slowly making it's way back down to Lake Gaston in northern North Carolina, where it had spent most of July.

Please visit our Eagle Map Gallery to see other maps of the eagle movements. The gallery contains maps of the eagle movements plotted on shaded relief maps that show local topography as well as eagle movements shown on a satellite image of the bay region which illustrates the types of landcover the eagles are living near.
