what is this 'pressure ridge' Lesley?

One  eagle headed off down the lake toward the dam where there was open water and perhaps supper. The other eagle circled the island  periodically perching on the taller white pines and definitely keeping a watchful eye on us.Every so often, "she" flew over the middle of the island making peeping sounds. Eventually, we saw  what all the fuss was about. If the nest was any bigger it would sink the island or create a new one! The other eagle flew back to the nest but the day light was pretty well gone and it was hard to see if he had brought back supper.
