Bald Eagles Camellia and KW, Duluth Airport Bald Eagle Update and The Dangers of Improperly Disposing of Fishing Line, Chesapeake Bald Eagle, Video of Bald Eagles In The Snow, How to Hold Two Bald Eagles, "Earthflight" PBS Miniseries

Reese has posted a new location map for Bald Eagle Camellia. He hasn't gone very far. Reese also posted about a local Eagle that got into trouble -- but was able to be released back into the wild the next day. He is banded KW.

I found this facebook page of Bald Eagle photos (and videos). It's pretty good. Well, I haven't finished exploring it. But what I've seen is pretty good...

Remember the Bald Eagles that crashed to the ground at the Duluth Airport? One flew off while it was being taken for treatment. The other was treated, banded, and released. Here is an update. If you fish, please be careful to not leave any fishing line behind after you leave. Injuries and deaths to wildlife occur too frequently due to improper disposal of fishing line.

And more sad news, this time regarding the Chesapeake Bald Eagle #12-001.

This page has a pretty video of Bald Eagles in the snow. I think it's a promotional video for a company that does workshops and tours. But it's still a pretty video.

If you ever need to hold two Bald Eagles at the same time, I guess this is how it's done!

There is a six-part miniseries coming soon to PBS. "Earthflight" presents the world from the perspective of various birds, including Bald Eagles. The air dates are six consecutive Wednesdays: Sep 4, 11, 18, 25, Oct 2 and 9. It comes on at 8:00PM. After each episodes airs, it will be available for streaming online at pbs.org/nature. It sounds interesting -- I'm gong to mark my calendar!
