Meet the Bald Eagles of 2006 So far we have 3 adult and 6 nestling Bald eagles to track this year. The researchers will attempt to capture 1 or 2 more birds this season. Each of these birds is fitted with a satellite transmitter (called a "PTT"). The young birds were fitted with transmitters while they were still in the nest! Biologist Peter Nye and his assistants visited the nest sites before the young birds could fly. We will watch them this season to learn about juvenile behavior. Click to read more details. Can you find 2 juveniles that are siblings?

Try This! Compare Migrations V98 has already had two complete spring and fall migrations you can use to compare and look for patterns. P04 has had a complete season of tracking. We can compare this season with what he did in 2005. Eagle U21 is brand new, and our first satellite-tagged of the 2006 season. "As far as I can tell, she is a young adult, so it will be interesting to see what she does," says Pete Nye. Compare Migrations Copyright 2006 Journey North. All Rights Reserved.
