Short Description of Activity
Reviewed previous nesting area to see if adult Bald Eagles have re-built a nest, since the nesting tree and nestlings were destroyed by wind. Walked Island Acres State Park trail scanning trees-1.5 miles. Adults were viewed perched downstream only after leaving the Park and former viewing area. Impossible to stop on Interstate. Possible nest north of perched adults.
Reflection/Evaluation
View eagle Pair. hard to do on private land. Goal partially met.
