If you're a bird enthusiast, the Bald Eagle Viewing Hide is a must-see. It's in a quiet spot with an elevated view, so spotting eagles is way easier. The best times to go are early mornings or late afternoons when the eagles are more active. Don’t forget your binoculars and camera!

I spotted the eagles earlier this year just before the trees leafed out so maybe late May? You need binoculars to see the eagles but the nest itself is visible as a spot in the tree. They're in the big trees a few hundred yards out. About 3 eaglets were sticking their heads up out of the nest.

I did not see any eagles, but baby bunnies are living under the blind.
