Mike McKee of Mississauga recently wrote to tell us about his Eagle sighting on Lake Cecebe, outside Burks Falls, he said ... I was working outside at the cottage doing some fall clean up in early October 2013. I heard crows making a fuss and as I looked up to see what the fuss was they were going after another bird which I realized was a Bald Eagle. It soared above me for a few minutes then flew off with the crows in chase. Was definitely a first for me in that area.

Ian from Brampton, Ontario, wrote to tell us ... I was outside in my backyard and saw a beautiful sighting of a Bald headed Eagle flying overhead! It was snowing and the eagle soared gracefully above me, what a thrill!

Olga from Waterloo, Ontario, wrote to tell us of her recent Bald Eagle sighting, she said ... I spotted a Bald Eagle at Snyder's Flats on November 17, 2013. On Nov 24 I spotted a pair at the same location.

A reader recently wrote to tell us about a Bald Eagle Sighting south of Ingersoll, he said ... I went biking this evening down Mt. Elgin Road west of Culloden Road. On the way back I saw a Bald Eagle eating a dead raccoon and he stayed there until I came up pretty close. Then he flew into a nearby tree and as he flew I could see his very white tail spread out. There was no mistaking it!
