Mr. Lankford is quite correct about the return of the Bald Eagles to the area--they have gradually been increasing in number on the James River, and moving downriver from at least one large concentration at Flowerdieu Hundred in the 1990s. Whether they are actually nesting on the pilings at the Jamestown Ferry, or in this case a channel marker, seems extremely unlikely, although any time they want to land they will dominate any other birds or bird's nest because of their own size. There is a photograph of a pair of Bald Eagles resting on one of the far ferry pilings at the Jamestown ferry dock at Google; as the ferry began its trip to Surry County, so did the Bald Eagles, however.
The Bald Eagle is a fishing eagle, as is the Osprey, but the Ospreys prefer to nest on pilings and markers, and the Bald Eagles do not.
I totaly agree with you !! See my photos of sunrise and ultralite on beach in Kill Devil Hills and Wild Horses playing in the Surf between where the road ends in Duck and the Va. Line.
