Bald Eagle Appreciation Day is a celebration of the Bald Eagle. Bald Eagles winter in the Prairie du Chien, Wi area along the Mississippi River between Iowa and Wisconsin. Some early migrants will also be in the Prairie du Chien area during the event. The event involves live bird presentations, educational talks on the Bald Eagle, and directions to areas where Bald Eagles can be seen. Friday night programs include two presentations. Saturday programs are all day long and include several live bird presentations.
