NiteRunner Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 I don't know it's probably not a big deal but it was really neat to see! A friend had seen it friday and then saturday called and said it was at the same place. So we ran up there, only like 3 miles away. He was eating something dead out in a field. It was raining and starting to snow so I'm sure he didn't look his best. But he had a white head! I think that means he;s an older bird. It was very cool in my thoughts, Sorry I didn't have a camera!

Tominator Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Re: I Saw A Bald Eagle We've been seeing more and more of them around here. About 3 or 4 years ago as my buddy and I were bringing in our duck deeks we spoiled a bald eagle's final approach on what he thought was going to be an easy meal. That eagle got within 10 yards of us before he figured out the ducks were fake, but we weren't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut_Buster Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Re: I Saw A Bald Eagle They are all over here in wisconsin. They are starting to move farther to the southern part of the state. If you have a river or lake here in wisconsin theres an eagle somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_lou Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Re: I Saw A Bald Eagle It's sad to say but I see so many of them, I kind of take them for granted. My in-laws have a pair that nest on the lake they live on. Like BC_32 said, along the Mississippi river they are thick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palssonater Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Re: I Saw A Bald Eagle I have seen many of them out here, usually when fishing. I was fortunate enough to see two Bald Eagles clutched in a death spiral, release before they hit the water and do it two more times. It was an amazing site. I have seen them take fish out of the water, and fight a seagul for a dead fish. They are amazing in size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDNKHNTR77 Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Re: I Saw A Bald Eagle I have seen 3 in my day. There is a nest about 15 minutes from my house that i like to go see once in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 Re: I Saw A Bald Eagle When I was younger I rarely seen them but in the last few years (especially this year) I have seen a slew of them! Beautiful birds.... And yes the white head means they are mature birds. My brother and I watched some dive bomb ducks years back. To date that was one of the coolest things ive ever seen....

c_lou Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 Re: I Saw A Bald Eagle Speaking of seeing a Eagle. On my way into work today, I saw one sitting on the ice by my in-laws house. I didn't think they would be back in that nest yet. I tried looking for his shanty, but remembered they had to be off the ice last month.

Norm Sauceman Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 Re: I Saw A Bald Eagle You should go to Dale Holow Lake here in Tennessee..There are hundreds there and while you are here, just drive on over to Dollywood, they are one of the best in North America at rehab for wounded Baldies..
