Greetings, My wife and I were driving on I 24 across the Nichajack Lake and saw a bald eagle floating across ahead of us. The white head was clearly visible. We would liked to have stopped and watched for a few moments, but at that point it is impossible. We know that for several years there has been a bald eagle nest in the area nearby, but we have not checked it ourselves this year or seen an e-mail that reports others have seen it, so we don't know where this one was headed - perhaps up to Raccoon Mt. Our sighting was last Saturday, January 6th. Good birding to all. J. N.
