January is Eagle Awareness Month

Eagles love Arkansas! They are fond of our natural waterways and mild winters. They both nest and overwinter here. Fish is their main prey.
Great locations to see an eagle:
Lake DeGray, Bull Shoals, Petit Jean, Holla Bend and Pinnacle Mtn. State Park.
Fun Facts:
• Eagles can live up to 30 years in wild.

• Females are larger than males.
• They are strong swimmers.
• Eagles mate for life until one dies.
• They build large nests (5’ wide x 3’ tall) they may add to these year after year.
• The largest nest on record weighed 2 tons.
