Bald eagle by LSU

Thought this would be a cool story for my bros.

there is a nest on BREC's Farr Park property. You can't see it unless the leaves are off the trees. Its about a mile south of Brightside Lane and .5 miles east of River Road.

15 years ago we lived just off the LSU lakes on the opposite side of LSU. I had never seen a bald eagle but really wanted to. After a fishing trip I was cleaning our boat, looked up, and saw a gorgeous bald eagle perched in our neighbor's water oak. It was literally awesome. Strange, too, since the neighborhood is mostly small 1940's houses on small lots so it's very urban. I called our neighbor who was an older widow who had lived in that house for more than 50 years and had never seen a bald eagle either. She got a great look that day. My wife and FIL also got to see their first bald eagles. Since then I've seen hundreds of bald eagles but that day still stands out.

Huh?
