Un'Aquila Calva in Città



Smarrimento


Volo

 

Albero rifugio


La salvezza fra i rami intricati


Il tramonto

Il Mississippi è vicino. Ritroverà l'orientamento quest'aquila calva smarrita nel traffico cittadino?

Living in the area of the Mississippi River offers many unique opportunities that are not found in
most areas. The Upper Mississippi River runs from Minneapolis, Minnesota to St. Louis,
Missouri.  This part of the river has locks and dams that the eagles gather around since
turbulent water does not freeze.  This is good for the eagles because many fish flow through
the dam and are stunned while they pass under the gates of the dam.  This provides an easy
meal for the bald eagles.  The Upper Mississippi River has a very high number of wintering
eagles, over 2,500 birds.  This is compared to the early 1960's when the entire lower 48 states
averaged only 4,000 birds.  During the spring and summer months most of the birds in this
area probably migrate into Canada and the Great Lakes states. (<<<)
