  Bald Eagle

Did you know that the area where the the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers meet is one of the best places to watch Bald Eagles in the entire United States?   The prime time to watch these majestic birds is January and February.  So head just a little bit East to the Wood River, Alton or Grafton area to take in the sights.  This website gives you some ideas of where to start and events going on. 

You can take the Brussels Ferry across the river and back, check out the antique shops in Alton or head up to Grafton for lunch and shopping.

I’ve never done this before, but as a new transplant to the area I’m hoping to see some Eagles this year.  What do you think is the best place to Eagle watch?
