All About Birds, for All Seasons

Special Bird Trips in Minnesota

Soar with the Eagles:   Saturday, February 24, 2007        Tickets = $85

It's the perfect Valentine's Day gift:  a trip for you and your loved one (or give it as a gift for your parents) to Wabasha, Minn., to see both captive and wild Bald Eagles.

We'll cruise in a comfy motorcoach down to Wabasha, stopping in Red Wing along the way to view additional eagles.  Last year we saw a Golden Eagle on the way!  Once in Wabasha, we'll visit with eagle experts at the National Eagle Center.  After viewing the educational birds up close, we'll head outside to hopefully view hundreds of eagles gathered there to fish on the open waters of the Mississippi (nearby power plant keeps the water open).  Be sure to bring your cameras, binoculars, etc!

From there, we'll enjoy a nice lunch then head over to a bird banding demo in Whitewater State Park.  The bird banding is hands-on - your chance to get up close and personal with a chickadee, nuthatch, cardinal or woodpecker!

This is a pretty long day due to the distance we travel.  The coach has comfortable seats and an onboard lavatory.  We'll provide a cooler with drinks, but feel free to bring your own water, soda, etc.  No alcohol please.

Tickets will be available online or you may purchase them in person at any of our six family-owned stores. Questions?  Just ask your guide Tami.

NOTE:  This was a wonderful trip in 2006 and we predict a quick sell-out in 2007.
