Field Notes

Description:

On the North Shore of the Harrison River, a wintering ground for Bald Eagles... Juvenile in brown and white feathers, playing with a perched adult (white Head)

Habitat:

the Banks of the Harrison river are littered with the corpse of thousands of salmons. Heavily forested "In Patches". I counted as many as 30 eagles in 1 tree... Annual size of gathering vary, and are dictated by weather, and food availability
