Red Wing, MN Eagle Spot Weekends

02-03-2010

Red Wing Eagle Spot Weekends Feb 20 - March 21, 2010


Red Wing, MN - Red Wing will be bringing back its popular Eagle Spot Weekends from February 20 through March 21, 2010. Each Saturday and Sunday from 1-3 pm visitors can go to Colvill Park to watch eagles while experienced volunteers from the Environmental Learning Center answer questions about eagle behavior, ecology and recovery.
 
Spotting scopes and binoculars guarantee spectacular close-up views of these magnificent birds of prey. The pool of open water in this area of the Mississippi provides an ideal fishing spot for the eagles, which sometimes gather by the hundreds in the trees lining the riverfront just east of downtown. The best time to watch for eagles is between 9 am and 4 pm. For updates on eagle activity visit www.redwing.org or call 800-498-3444.
 
NOTE: Red Wing is located along US 61 about an hour from the Twin Cities and Rochester. To reach Colvill Park, travel to the east end of town along Hwy 61 and take a right near the Days Inn on 7th Street. Follow the underpass and the signs to Colvill Park and Aquatic Center.
