Hello all on this beautiful Sunday afternoon! This afternoon at SGL 277, Cambridge Springs, we had excellent looks at an immature Golden Eagle migrating northward. It caught our attention because it was circling low. Even with binoculars we could easily see the white underside of the tail with the distinct dark terminal band as well as the white patches on the underwing. Because it kept circling right in the same area, we were able to get it in the scope and see the light golden nape. It rode a thermal higher and higher until it streamed off the top and headed north. Definitely the best look I've had yet at a Golden Eagle. We also had a FOY Broad-winged Hawk, right on schedule. Both were nice additions to a Sunday afternoon walk.
