Sneaking up on Eagles in Minnesota

There is a little park that is north of Rockville, which is only 5 minutes from Cold Spring, there is a park dedicated to eagles, hence the name Eagle Park! I have gone there a few times this spring to get close to the eagles. Right now the trees are just starting to leaf out and the nest is not covered by the foliage so you can get some nice pictures of the eagles. There is a quick little trail around the park with the Sauk River running close by. I hope one day to watch them pluck out a fish from the river when they start to feed their babies.

I think this was Momma
And this was Daddy

There were other little birds trying to decide which house had the best view and the nicest neighbors. They were the Eastern Bluebird and barn swallow. They didn't seem to care that their big neighbors might consider them a light snack!














I could have watched them all day!
