2) Strong topic and concluding sentences. Your topic sentences should: 1) state the main idea of the paragraph AND function as a mini-thesis. 2) connect the new paragraph to the previous one (transitioning is usually a matter of using one word-- however, similarly, furthermore--or a short phrase--in contrast to). Your concluding sentences should: 1) offer a summary of the paragraph (its meaning; your point).
The camera at the bald-eagle nest near Codorus State Park at Hanover has begun livestreaming its fourth season of round-the-clock video to viewers worldwide.

Bald eagles are a North American species that historically occurred throughout the contiguous United States and Alaska. The largest North American breeding populations are in Alaska and Canada, but there are also significant bald eagle populations in the Great Lakes states, Florida, the Pacific Northwest, the Greater Yellowstone area, and the Chesapeake Bay region. Adult bald eagles have the dark brown body and distinctive white head and tail. In contrast, juvenile bald eagles have mottled brown and white plumage.
