Subject: Re: [mnbird] Eden Prairie Eagles

For those curious to check the urban eagles out, the side street off of
Anderson Parkwaywith a direct view is Chestnut Drive.  A walking path
entry point for Purgatory Creek is right there and you'd actually end up
walking right under the tree their nest is in.  They seem to tolerate
the joggers, cyclists and walkers who pass by pretty well. They are
easily viewable with just a pair of basic binoculars.

This morning both eagles were sitting guard above the nest.  Its a pair
of good sized mature eagles.  Talking to a local resident they are
apparently active in the morning hunting around the lake there and
disappear during the afternoons.  He said last year they got to enjoy
them and their eaglets learning to hunt during the spring.

Thanks to Phyllis Bofferding for sharing that they are there!

Regards,
Matt
