I have about 200 eagle swatters near my house. 200-300' tall rotating
blades. Take em down like a car does to a mosquito hovering over the Interstate. Just birds? Not a big fan of the big fans. DD |

Endeavor to persevere.

That is going to be an issue here too. We are rapidly becoming the Saudi Arabia of wind power. The eagle wind mill thing is just starting to be addressed...

Nice post jsg When I was a kid we had no eagles. Now we have loots of them. For a few years we had a nesting pair on a cliffside adjacent to the interstate I traveled to work upon. I could glance quickly to see the chicks heads. I never told anyone of the nest, except the Game Commission. They didn't know about it and then denied it; seems no one is allowed to know more than the deity! About 60 miles north there was a large nest that I watched during duck hunting in a marsh. I would see the eagle often and one day it attacked my peace loving plastic decoys, about 20 foot away from my layout boat. Again the Game Commission said they knew of no eagle nests where I told them. Seems like all the birds of prey (not star trek types) have come back to pre-1860 levels. at my office I had a Peregrine falcon come and eat birds, 600 foot above the river bed. They nested about 60 foot below me and I could watch them hatch with my binoc out the window. That was really great. Maybe it was the DDT band that brought them back. The eagles are dead fish eaters, so maybe the lead/mercury/DDT was in those fish and caused the eggs to die?? Sure is nice to be trolling along and watcha bald eagle swoop down and pick up dinner from the lake. Edited by BEAR |

There is a Huge Golden eagle nest on "Crown" butte by Cascade. National Geographic did a show on it once possibly one of the oldest in the country defiantly the biggest... Out where I fish At widow coulee there is a tree across the river that has had a nesting pair of bald eagles for the past twenty plus years, They manage to have two chicks every year..
