Feeding
the Eagles!
January
of this year 2012, the weather stayed so cold in St. Louis,
Missouri and Alton, Illinois that the bald eagles were cruising
over houses in hopes of a quick meal. They could not access fish
that were at the bottom of the river and had gathered together.
Some kind souls decided to feed the eagles so they would survive the cold spell. They gathered fish and started feeding the small group of eagles huddled on the shore.
The photos below show what happened. A retired teacher took these photos in front of his home. Incredible!

A beautiful morning feeding the eagles,

Once the fish were thrown, the eagles
did not seem to fear the good
Samaritans and word spread fast!

As you know, it was not too long ago that
the American
Bald Eagle was an endangered species. Amazing pictures - please pass along!
