Huggergirl, Chesapeake Bay bald eagles do not normally migrate — the adults spend most of their year in this general area — but immature bald eagles are not tied to a territory and a nest, so they will normally fan out over a broader area (maybe even into Canada) before they return to settle in the Chesapeake Bay region when they are around four years old and are ready to mate.

I visited Blackwater yesterday but it was a terrible dark day for photography. I did see quite a few Bald Eagles and often in pairs. That's a good sign ......

I didn't really get any good photos because they were quite a distance away. This photo is a 100% crop. The eagles were just a small dark dot at the top of a dead tree. Nonetheless, it was worth keeping ..... "showing some affection".
