I thought the shells of eagle eggs thinned because of a low calcium diet.

It'll be a different story after the Eagles are busted for racketeering, money laundering, and loan sharking.

Lots of bald eagles in the Puget Sound region. See them flying in downtown Seattle every once in awhile.

I just have to brag. These pictures are from next to my house. A typical winter day, but with clear skies.

We have several pair of nesting eagles in our neighborhood.

They'll swoop down into the lake and come out with a fish...they're beautiful creatures to watch.

EVERY type of wildlife has been on the rebound in the northeast over the years. As a kid in the NYC area, you only very rarely saw turkeys, red-tailed hawks, great blue herons -- even seeing a deer was cause for excitement. Now...

Saw my first bear in the Catskills last summer, first bald eagle the year before that.

The 500,000,000 dead from malaria would like to thank Rachel Carson and the rest of the Green Brigade for banning DDT.

Eagles have the uncanny ability to remember exactly where they were born, and to return to that spot

What exit?

"I thought the shells of eagle eggs thinned because of a low calcium diet."

As a Chicken Farmer I always dry and crush the eggshells of the eggs I use in our household and feed them right back to the hens in their mash. Can't get any fresher calcium than that. I also add crushed shells to the bird feeder mix in the spring so the Mama Birds get a little calcium boost when they start laying in earnest in the Spring. :)

As for the Eagles, I'm TOTALLY amazed that New Jersey has such a large population of them. Way to go! We'll be "Eagle Watching" on the Wisconsin River in the upcoming weeks. I just love the dorky looking Eaglettes. :)
