Turner, our young male bald eagle that we've been tracking via satellite
transmitter has returned to Kentucky after a nearly 5-month stay in
northern and central Illinois! For those of you who may not have heard,
in May 2010, we attached 2 satellite transmitters to nestling bald
eagles at Ballard Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Ballard County, KY.
We've created a website for the public to view up-to-date maps of the
eagle's movements and information about the project.
To see detailed maps of the young eagle's recent movements, including
Turner's flight back into Kentucky, please visit the news page for our
bald eagle tracking project at:

most recent news).
For the whole story on the eagle tracking project, please check out the
eagle tracking website main page at
http://fw.ky.gov/baldeagletracking.asp for all the details.
In September 2010, we added additional information to the website about
bald eagles: nesting, wintering, identification, etc. Please visit the
