St. Patrick’s County Park in South Bend. There are now three eggs in the nest and there is a webcam so they can be watched when the adults care for the eggs, when the eggs hatch and when the young take flight and leave the nest.
I believe I saw an Eagle today around 2:45pm. I was letting my dogs out in the back yard. We have hawks and I like to watch them. This was bigger than the Hawks I’ve seen, it’s head was white, dark body, and white tailfeathers. His wingspan was bigger, straight out to the side and it was just like floating in the air. It totally took me by surprise, I live in Northwest Indiana and I’ve never seen one before and wasn’t sure there where any in this area. I like to watch for different birds every year in my backyard, love to bird watch. If this actually was an eagle, I am very happy and excited to have seen it.
Another great location is Middlefork Reservoir in Richmond, IN. There are several.
Mt Summit on 500 east in Delaware county.
