Wallace,
I found two adult Bald Eagles sitting on a branch about three feet apart
today. They were near the mouth of the Bluestone River on Bluestone Lake
here in southern WV. I keep thinking we have a nest nearby. Any suggestions
or tips on locating such?
A couple of ladies from your birding group stayed at Pipestem recently. i
really enjoyed talking with them.
