Eagle Knowledge<\/h3>\n

Missouri is among the leading lower 48 states for bald eagle viewing because of its wide rivers, many lakes, and abundant wetlands. Each fall, thousands of our national birds migrate south from their nesting range in Canada and the Great Lakes states to hunt in Missouri. These eagles take up residence wherever they find open water and plentiful food. It is estimated that more than 2,000 bald eagles are typically reported in Missouri during winter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
