Our Eagle Co-child Virgil Caine flies right by us and we stood still.

For the past week I have ignored our Co-adopted golden eagle named Virgil Caine. In fact the week we plunged for tickets to see Levon Helm in May. That darn bird had been circling around PA and points south like teenagers do, just kicking the dust and exploring the surrounding areas inhabited by competing bird gang members.
So when I looked today, she (in this case, Virgil is a she) had not only flown past Woodstock,NY (roughly) and grazed the south end of VT and is now in Northern NH! She didn't even call except I did ignore her recent daily updates found at Seaturtle.org. My fault.
Hopefully she will travel south via the Lake Champlain flyway since the fishing will probably be better for her then. She did that last fall.
Last year she flew a similar pathway in the spring to the one now.
I'll have to pay better attention so we can see if we can find her as she flies on her way south or north. Plenty of others birds have been activated into full spring mode with song and courting.
It is refreshing to hear them as it will be to hear Levon in person.
Will let you know how it is!
