Amazing to me anyway.......today I saw a Bald Eagle just off my property!!
This is really something as I live about 6 miles east of downtown Allentown Pa.They are truly making a great comeback and it is wonderful to see this great bird in my backyard.
Sorry for the off topic post but I want to tell everyone.

   Same as for around here it used to be few and far in between sightings now you here about them all the time. Was fishing the hudson river the other night and looked up and sure as heck there was a eagle in the tree. definetly a thing of beauty.

Small world.
I made a hitchhiking tour in the early 70s to drop some buds outta college.
Muhlenberg was on my list.
My friend pumpkin balls or something that rhymed with that was never the same.
Good times.

That's great Jack. The first sightings around here were about 25 or so years ago right in my back yard along the Stockport flats on the Hudson . It was quite a big thing back then as DEC found a pair nesting . Now we watch them fish all the time and they are much better at catching herring then I will ever be.

Correction to my original post,I live west of Atown not east.
 
There are Eagles on the Big Lehigh and Delaware that are not far from me but in the Pocono region.To see one down here is really something.

They are a sight to behold and boy do they make some noise.

They are amazing and strongly spreading. I've seen them in the suburbs of NYC and jersey...to the urban areas near Ridgefield park along the Hackensack river at the gateway to the meadowlands. Back in march or so this past year I saw one come up off of the salmon river basin at the 2a bridge while viewing from the transfer station...they are everywhere..

We had a few nest around here on tops of some of the high voltage towers.  Residents have moved out though.   Up in Quebec where I fish I have seen them take a fish from the water it is amazing .

The only place I used to see them was up in Nova Scotia brookie fishing --now they occasionally circle overhead looking at the lake I live at here in Ct.
Spreading out big time.

We having them in Hawley, pa along the Lackawaxen River most all the time.
