We took the "Eagle Cruise" on Lake Coeur d'Alene, Idaho just before Christmas 2018. There were almost 400 eagles at the north end of the lake at Wolf Lodge Bay. That is the best area for spawning Kokanee salmon which the eagles love to eat. You find dead dish bodies all over the beach. This season the count was down from the previous year's record, but they are still plentiful.

There has been a nesting pair in a redwood tree at a school in Milpitas, California for several years. Every year they raise one to three eaglets.

That’s a beautiful picture.

I posted this because... it’s uplifting. The bald eagle is our national symbol and I found the article encouraging.
