Golden Eagle #46, who left his wintering area in Minnesota on March 6 has travelled over 950 miles (1,500 km). After crossing into Canada he covered 180 miles (292km) on April 5 and followed that with 150 miles (240km) on April 6. He was north/northwest of Lake Winnipeg at Cross Lake but then looped back south on the 9th and backtracked 120 miles.
Golden Eagle #46 continues to move north. After getting just north of Lake Winnipeg on April 8 he turned around and went back south about 225 miles and remained just east of Lake Winnipeg until April 19. On the 20th he headed to the northeast towards Hudson Bay. On April 22nd, he was about 50 miles west of the western shore of Hudson Bay, then turned north near Stephen’s Lake near the Fox Lake Cree Nation Indian Reserve. This puts him near the same path he took last spring. It will be interesting to see if he continues to follow the route he took last year and ends up in the Arctic.
