I saw these eagles feeding on this dry puddle of dead carp. At least 30 eagles in the area close to the Missouri River. When I was young we never saw them. Now they're everywhere nesting. Will they become like wolves in the west?

Hardly a summer goes by that I've been asked if I can do anything about all the eagles taking out cats, chickens, ducks and other farm animals. The answer is always the same, federal prison is NOT part of my retirement plan!

They raise heck with the muskrats and ducks around here.

… had one come off of my carcass pile last week … used to be unheard of around here…See several every year now

So common around here anymore no one even comments when you see them.

They don't taste as good as Spotted Owls, but there's more meat.

Along the Mississippi you can see the trees loaded with them in places. See them pretty much all over here though.

We had none forever, about 10 years ago they started showing up and there's nesting pairs now...they raise heck with the Ospreys, which came back in full force 20 years now...Still not a large amount of Eagles but no longer a surprise when you see them...watched an adult and juvenile attacking a flock of turkeys a few years ago.

Too many for sure. Used to be they didn't go above the treeline but they're all over near the ocean now. See 30-40 a day when boating in the summer. 50+ hanging around fish camps in the delta or 100+ at the town dump.

Their nests are impressive. Close to one trapping beaver last spring and they’re huge.

Depends on how you marinate em

It’s a stringy meat but not bad.

Here in Iowa they hang around the hog buildings (pig factories) and it's common to see them standing and sitting near the dead pig pot - they eat well here. Pretty impressive sight seeing them on the nest or near their nest. Not sure what the Iowa eagles taste like - probably a hint of pork but I heard someone from Minnesota say theirs' taste like loon.

Almost hit one several times last fall on the tail end of salmon season. Can't say I don't find them photogenic, but they are about as common as crows around here.

Nice to see and have around.I always throw them pickerel while ice fishing.

Living symbol of our nation.

Yep, and sure beats turkeys

Way too many. They constantly harass the waterfowl and small game. When I’m harvesting soybeans, and a rabbit runs outta the crop, maybe 1 in 5 make it to cover, the rest are picked off by eagles. Glorified buzzard in my book.

Well we are going to find out. Our Governor and his band of thieves in the Legislature doled out 18.5 Million for a loon center in MN. I assume they'll be serving some sort of loon burger or loon tacos in the snack bar

I have seen eagles taking out fully grown Canadian geese out of the air.Quite impressive.
