Driving through Jay Cooke State Park today I noticed several bald eagles flying over. I pulled over on a rise near where Hwy 210 joins Jay Cooke Road at 12:25 and over the next thirty minutes counted 52 bald eagles, 6 red-tailed hawks, and 5 sharp-shinned hawks fly over. Later, while casually watching and walking along the Munger bike trail I counted another 21 bald eagles, 2 red-tailed,1 sharp-shinned, and 1 rough-legged hawk flying over. All were moving directly from SW to NE. It turned out to be great birding on a nice warm day in the northland.
