We = found the majority of our eagles at locations not on the map. It was amazi= ng that thirty to forty people were stopped for one eagle only and were bus= y photographing just a single eagle at more than one location listed on the= map. We did find 66 eagles in total, 26 red-tailed hawks, and a brown cre= eper. This was the fewest species I have seen on an outing there during ea= gle weekend in all of the years that I attended.
