Belle Haven Eagles update


Belle Haven Eagles update
Originally uploaded by philliefan99.

A few days ago, the National Park Service finally erected a jersey wall/snow fence barricade around the emergency turn-off from the parkway where people were illegally parking their cars to watch the Belle Haven bald eagles. Foot traffic has also been restricted to the Mt. Vernon Trail on the other side of the highway. The result is that the closest views of the birds on public property are now about 100 feet further away -- and driving through there has become far safer. The country club still has not restricted foot traffic on the other side of the nest.
