Banner Peak is arguably the most picturesque peak in the Sierra Nevada. It is the second highest peak in the Ritter Range, very close to its bigger neighbor Mount Ritter, 200 feet taller. Compared to Ritter, Banner Peak is much slimmer with a sharp profile; it is surrounded by 1500-2000 feet high vertical cliffs except on its southwest side

  • This Bald Eagle screeches to ward of intruders, while protecting a meal of fish. It visits Haines, AK each year when there are few places left to fish, as most of the rivers have frozen over, trapping the fish under a layer of ice.

  • With the introduction of DDT as a widespread insecticide in the United States in 1940, the bald eagle population decreased radically, falling to a low point of 487 nesting pairs in 1963. The DDT alters the calcium metabolism of female birds, preventing them from creating a hard shell around the eggs they produce. The egg thinning led to a higher rate of egg loss due to cracks during incubation.

  • American Bald Eagles can be found in North America, from Alaska to Mexico. They are typically seen in areas near large bodies of open water with an abundant food supply and old-growth trees for nesting.
