Come February, the bald eagles will return to their nests and begin the cycle of hatching and fledging, yet again. There are still a few weeks to travel to their roosting sites to observe them in large numbers. If the weather turns cold, you may be in luck. Here’s my account of Eagle Days in Sauk City/Prairies du Sac, WI. (If you are hoping for eagle pics, this will disappoint. I need a birding lens!)

I travel a lot and want to travel even more. I really enjoy it! I have no travel expertise or special knowledge. I do have opinions, observations, impressions and photographs to share. If I am not particularly edifying - perhaps I will be entertaining! Who am I? I have an MBA and founded a catalog business about 17 years ago, called Isla, now also online as IslaOnline.com. I am a wife, and mother of two grown (nearly) sons. I split my residential time between Puerto Rico and Wisconsin.3 responses »

Yep, I can make out your /little guy who seems to be studying with “mile” interest your efforts to “shoot” him. Where in the photo is the nest and when will he/she deposit the eggs?
A juvenile is still a lone eagle…not to rate near the parental nest and still to young to have a mate of his/her own.
He/she will find a mate and build an egg when the head and tail feathers are white – between 4 and 5 years old.
