Eagle Watch
You are invited to participate in the 36th Annual Clinton Bald Eagle Watch. Our program
is dedicated to the understanding, appreciation, and protection of our national symbol.
Naturalists and volunteers will be on hand to share their enthusiasm and knowledge of these, and other birds of prey. Hundreds of Bald Eagles visit the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife & Fish Refuge lands each year, from late fall through early spring.
Scout Troop #117 will have food available for purchase throughout the day at CCC.
