Description

This report updates the progress of a bald eagle migration and movements study begun during July, 1982. The study objectives are: 1 to determine and compare seasonal movement patterns of subadult and adult bald eagles on Kodiak Island; 2 to identify possible emigration and immigration patterns between the Kodiak population of bald eagles and other Alaskan or North Pacific bald eagle populations; and 3 to document local winter movements in relation to the Kodiak state airport in an effort to minimize bird strike hazards bald eagles have posed in past years.
