Bald Eagle Tracking Project - Week 20 and 21

During the past two weeks three of the four immature bald eagles stayed in the vicinity of where they were in early October. Blue is still in Virginia moving between the Potomac River and the upper Rappahannock River near Fort A. P. Hill.

Green is still in the Colonial Beach area of Virginia, while Red is still in the Tar River area of North Carolina. Yellow started this period along the Rappahannock River in Virginia, then moved south to the James River west of Williamsburg.

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.
