That's funny, Lori.  My cats have learned to ignore the Decorah Eagles over the years (oh, them again :) ) but they were very interested in the calls from the Mississippi Flycam :)

How cool would it be to see a backpack?  Wonder if D27 made it through here?   Wow MPMOM this thread & cam is smokin' hot!  New from Tulsa  https://youtu.be/ztQyS74SSZ0

D27 came very close to the Lk. Onalaska area the 1st month she got her backpack (Aug 2017, Pink Track).
She very well could have visited the lake in the time between her 2 northern most waypoints/pings.  :)

She flew right over the Lake in May of this year, again possibly stopping in between Track line waypoints/pings. (May 2018, Black Track).  8)

So yes, she possibly could have already "been there, done that" at Lk Onalaska and she could do so again.  ;D ;D

BL - You don't disappoint. That was fun!!!  D1 was no stranger to the Onalaska area, either. But, I'd say we need to keep a sharp eye out for an antenna and/or a silver band on the right leg. It just might be D27 or D24, although we don't have any evidence he even knows Onalaska exists. ;)

A beautiful way to rise today watching the Mississippi Fly cam -- I think i'll be here often until the Decorah Eagle cameras are up and running.

I am enormously impressed, inspired, grateful and just plain joyful of this amazing addition to RRP's mission.  I am so very honored that RRP has carried on Bob's legacy and at such a professional and communicative way.  I can never say thank all of enough!   :-*

BL & T40- I knew it!  I look forward to studying those maps today.  So cool!  Thank you both for taking the time to share this wonderful news with us!  I keep looking at the legs for bands.  I need to find some info on the bands and colors to learn how that works next!  Education never stops at RRP!

Large squadron of Great White Pelicans is resting at the refuge right now.  They passed through the area going north in huge groups this spring and are beginning their migration southward.  Winds are out of the SSE so they may rest for awhile.  This camera is a real gift to those of us who are migration watchers.  Thank you RRP!

We'll be seeing lots of white pelicans soon as they pass through here - maybe in a couple of weeks.  They usually stop off at the Arkansas River where it winds through Tulsa, stay a couple of days, and then head on south.  So beautiful to see so many; we usually talk a walk along the river to see and hear them. Thanks to RRP for giving us an advance look at them!

Lori - RRP bands in a silvery metal, one band on the right leg. The exception was D24 and D25 - one boy was banded on the right leg and the other on the left leg so we could tell them apart! Of course I don't remember which one got the right/left band.  :P
