Thanks for the updates, Lynne - TERF21 is sure getting around a lot!

And I have news - thanks to Myles, I now know that he was banded March 10, 2022, at the Vancouver Landfill in Delta BC, and was close to a year old at that point, so hatched in 2021.

Myles also sent me some pictures, which are in the opening post - viewtopic.php?f=95&t=622 - and the first two click a whole lot bigger so you can see the how the feathers have lightened since he was fledge age.

I don't have the pictures on the website yet, but will be adding photos for a lot of our tagged eagles over the next few weeks, with big thanks to Myles, David, and the rest of the tagging/banding team!

March 7th update- may have missed a couple of earlier tracker updates: TERF21 left Kitimat February 26th - arrived at location for February 27 on the map
Then travelled southward along the shores until heading north on March 5th.
Today, March 7th on north end of Gil Island.
Thank you, Judy!
