SATURDAY, MARCH 1: Red Rock Eagle Viewing

Join us for a day of outdoor viewing of Bald Eagles at Red Rock Lake between
Pella and Knoxville.  There will be spotting scopes available for good views
of eagles below the dam at Howell Station/Horn Bridge and/or around the
lake.  There will be displays at the Central College auditorium, a live
eagle and presentations and the video called "Listen to the Eagle's Message"
will be shown during the weekend.

Bring binoculars if you have them, dress for conditions and bring hot
beverages and snacks.

We'll plan to leave the Des Moines area at 1 p.m.--meeting at the McDonalds parking lot along University Avenue (Highway 163) in Pleasant Hill.

Some participants may choose to stay for a 7:30 p.m. concert by Jon Stravers
at the Pella Opera House ($15.00 admission).

Contact Jane at [log in to unmask]  or (515)223-5047 for more information.

The concert mentioned is by Jon "Hawk" Stravers and his group called Big Blue Sky. Jon has done hawk research for over 25 year--he's a river man and folk musician who writes and sings music about his relationship with the environment.  His son, who was also a musician, and grandson were killed last fall in an automobile accident. This concert will celebrate their lives with music. Jon is originally from the Pella area but he now lives near McGregor.
