For the past 2 years, Chris and I have gone to watch the eagles at the lock and dams that are near us on the Mississippi. Even though we have have lived here over 30 years, we had never done that until last winter. When the river freezes, the only place the birds can fish are right below the dams in the open water. So bald eagles from "who knows where" come here to winter. Of course, Jon will tell you that only old people watch birds, so I guess that says it all. Here are some pictures of the bald eagles. Remember you can click on the pictures to see a bigger version of it. Mindy
