[birdky] bald eagles in Trigg Co.

Yesterday, we saw three bald eagles soaring in the Canton area of Trigg County 
while we were traveling on Hwy. 68 near the Cumberland River bridge to LBL.  I 
live in Oceanside, CA now but lived in Cadiz in 1977-79.  It was very thrilling 
to see these beautiful birds, especially three!  It would have been unheard of 
to see bald eagles back in 1977 so it is a tribute to those involved in 
conservation efforts here.  

We were on our way to Honker Bay at the time to see the gull.  I am fairly sure 
that I saw the the bird, it was near the mouth of the bay but the light was 
fading and I didn’t have a scope.  I saw plenty of Bonaparte’s gulls so 
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t one of those that I saw.  I hope to go back on 
Friday afternoon and get a better look.  

Is it possible to do much birding at the Ballard Co. WMA now?  I would like to 
see the snow geese.
