My First Readable Band, V34! Banded Eagle from NY @ Conowingo Dam, MD
This was my first photo with a readable band!
A few others got photos of him(?) too and researched it, and he's from NY and was banded in 2002 as a chick (assuming I remember the story correctly). NY uses two bands: silver and blue I think...
I haven't found info online for v34, but this site is related to the
bird, and may have the info...

Very cool...I have never seen a band on any eagles up here, I did down in Oregon but never anything readably close!
