Large numbers of bald eagles spend the winter months in the area of
the Mississippi between just south of the open water at Alma to
north towards Pepin. They feed on fish in the open waters where the
Chippewa River flows into the Mississippi River. They can be
spotted sitting on the edge of the ice, in the trees along the
riverbanks, or gliding above the water or soaring among the bluffs.
While their large numbers make them easier to spot in winter
months, they can be found year-round, as many are permanent
residents in the area. Depending on when you come, you may find it
very easy to find an eagle to take a photo of, or you may find it
more difficult. However, there are eagles here year round, and if
you look long enough, you will see eagles here, and at many other
locations along the Great River Road.
