The Birds

Had a fun little day in Prairie du Sac and Sauk Prairie last week photographing eagles along the Wisconsin River. I've never seen so many eagles in my life.

Each January the birds congregate en masse to feed and roost. As writer Barry Adams says, "The birds haven't packed up and left town...All they care about at this time of year is survival. And that is done by congregating near open water close to agricultural land and isolated roosting sites."
