KE has taken the long route to fly to Pennsylvania. She left Saw Pen Point in Virginia Beach, VA on July 29 – YELLOW arrow.  As of the last cell phone map KE was in King and Queen County, VA – PINK pointer August 30. On Sept 7 about 10:00am she took off flying west to Culpeper, VA where she stayed until the morning of Sept 9 – YELLOW pin. From Culpeper she flew across the Appalachian Mountains to Shenandoah Valley by 6:00pm Sept 9 – GREEN pointer – then flew south along I-81 to Buena Vista, VA – PURPLE pointer Sept 10 at 1:00am. On Sept 10 she crossed back eastward over the Appalachian Mountains, turned north and spent the night in Orange County, VA – BLUE pointer Sept 11 at 1:00am. On the 11th she continued north stopping along the Potomac River at Shepherd’s Island, WV – Orange pointer Sept 12 at 1:00am. Still northward bound KE flew into Pennsylvania on Sept 12 and stayed overnight a few miles north of Chambersburg, PA – YELLOW pointer. On the 13th of Sept she again headed north and as of this map she was in East Waterford, PA on Route 75 in Juniata County – WHITE arrow.

    She wants to try some frozen food, she’ll be back.
    She sure put some miles on!

    Wow! What an impressive route! Can’t wait to see what’s next on her itinerary! Wish she would go to Lake Anna. 😉
    Thank you Reese!

    WOW! How amazing that Azalea and Camellia have pretty much stuck closer to home and this one eagle has taken off and flown to places much farther away! It will be interesting to see if she turns around and flies back home when she encounters colder weather or will she keep on traveling north! Thanks for the update!

    I agree Margie, it will be very interesting to see what effect the colder weather will have on KE’s travels.
    AZ and Cammy seem to prefer the mid-atlantic milder winters.
    Makes me happy! 🙂

    I wonder if one or both of her parents are more northern eagles?…she certainly is exploring in a very different way than our Norfolk babies. And so it looks like she flew very near where i live!
    Response – Both parents currently hanging out in their nest territory in Va Beach, occasionally going to the nest.
