Birders,

Interesting information on studies being conducted about the movement of
bald eagles through the great lakes region.

at Presque Isle S.P.nest



Hi
FYI
On April 1, 2009 Scott Gorring of Erie took a photograph of a not quite full
adult bald eagle (perhaps 4 +years old--photo not attached but may be
available upon request) with a transmitter attached flying to the eagle nest
at Presque Isle State Park, Erie, PA.   Andrea Tibbels of the Ohio Division
of Wildlife in the e-mail below provided a website reference for Bird
Studies Canada <located in Port Rowan, Ontario-across Lake Erie from Ripley
(NY) Hawk Watch> and its research program of putting transmitters on bald
eagles.  Interesting explanation for the need for this program.

Hello Andrea:

These are photos taken by Scott Gorring of Erie on 4/1/09 at Presque Isle
State Park, Erie, PA.  Scott said I can pass them on to you.  This eagle
maybe an Ohio one since PA does no banding or use of transmitters.  Scott
said he was able to see a band on the leg of the bird-perhaps a silver one.
You may have the capability and skill to enhance the photo to see more.  If
you are able to make somewhat of an identifaication-please let Scott
know-his e-mail address is the cc  above-
Thanks
Tom Wasilewski
