I've wanted to get to Starved Rock in the winter to see the bald eagles. The eagles are starting to arrive to their winter home. I hope to get back in January when there should be hundreds of them by then. They are closer on the Illinois Waterway Visitor Center on the north side, but the sun was not being helpful for pictures. These were taken on the south side of the river, on the Starved Rock side.
