Bald Eagle Story

[Garth McElroy]

This winter has me filming bald eagles and ravens for clients. I've had 4 reliable birds that are feeding on carrion (mainly deer) regularly. One of these birds is banded and I was able to get the band numbers by blowing up the footage. Turns out that the bird was banded back in 2006 about twenty miles from my location. A few days later I received this picture http://www.featheredfotos.com/DL/eagle.jpg of the bird from the bander (BRI in Portland) on the day the bird was banded. Very neat to know this bird has been out there and survived so long. 

Here's a clip of the banded eagle: https://youtu.be/RTGvn01103s

And a clip of two other birds feeding with ravens: https://youtu.be/Gspx3xm_ZCw
