Adult eagle: migration in Progress

The adult eagle took off from the Okhota river on 18 October and flew along the coastline, some 15 km inland and on 20 October arrived in the Belaya Gora region of the Russian Far east. The place, judging from the Panoramio photos, is a magnet for the eagles.

It was here last autumn from 28 October to 17 November (that is 2009)... the same place, similar time. Interestingly during spring 2010 this place was not visited: the eagle went straight to the ice north of the Shantar islands.



Will the youngster will join the adult here as they did last fall? I bet it will happen sometime between 2 and 7 November.

    Well, good news that the adult isn't going to get caught in the Okhost trap! I think the youngster will join the adult too
