*Eagles can be seen any time of day, but sunrise and sunset they are more active. During the day you may see eagles perched in a tree or soaring over the river looking for fish. Viewing is dependent mainly by the weather. All viewing is outside so dress appropriately and bring binoculars or a spotting scope.
