Hosted Eagle Viewing

Last week, the Bureau of Land Management recorded a total of 34 bald eagles sighted around the shores of Lake Coeur d’Alene’s Wolf Lodge Bay. Each winter, from November through February, migrating eagles stop over at the lake to feed on spawning kokanee salmon as they make their way south. Each year, the visiting eagles’ numbers peak in mid-December, slowing down again as January approaches. This weekend, Idaho State Park rangers are at Higgens Point for a hosted public viewing, to answer questions and educate about this magnificent creature.
