Richard,
Thanks for the info about Bristol Bird Club tracking eagles!
Here is the information from the siting at Chilhowie Elementary
Location:
Chilhowie Elementary School
, Chilhowie, Va
seen in the back yard and parent drop off loop along the Middle Fork of the
Holston River
Feb. 23, 2011
The eagle was seen by several students and parents as they came to school
between 8:00 and 8:30
The eagle was in a tree near the river and then it dove into the river and
came out with a fish in its talons....it put on quite a show!
around 8:30-8:45 I saw the eagle in the back yard of the school roosting in
a tree by the river. I took a class of Kindergarten students out to stalk the
bird ...we were able to get fairly close until the train went by and he flew
down the river toward Marion.
I will attempt to send pictures later.
Mary Beth Graham
