Bald Eagle Tracking Project - Weeks 48-49

One immature bald eagle spent the week on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, while the other two were along the Potomac River in Virginia. Red started the week in Dorchester County along the Choptank River. She then moved north to Kent County in the vicinity of Tolchester Beach, Chesapeake Farms, and Langford Creek.

Yellow stayed in the Caledon area of Virginia again this week, while Green frequented the Quantico area of Virginia. The preceeding text was provided by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources.

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.
