Golden Eagle at Channel and Snug Harbor

.
At noon today (Nov. 11) a sub-adult Golden Eagle flew over the west end of Muskegon Lake just east of the Muskegon Channel north over Snug Harbor and beyond.  I hawk-watched another hour in hopes it would return "to be counted", but it did not.  The bird is easily recognizable from any Bald Eagle: all dark body and wing feathers with no white visible to me on the upper or lower wings, bright white feathers on upper tail, broad dark band at base of tail.  Maybe it will find the Wastewater?
