We went to see the bald eagles in Clarksville this weekend. They come to this part of the country during January - March while the water supply in Canada is frozen. We were fortunate to see a live presentation about them before we went down to the river front to try and spot some with the binoculars that our friends had brought and the telescopes that the Conservation Department had set up. Really neat to see them perched in the trees. I've been telling my class about them this week.....their wingspan can be up to 8 feet long! And their nests are sometimes 8 feet wide and 4 feet deep.....that's a big bird house!
