Special Event for Clarksville Historical Museum
Jerry Epperson and Pat Joyce returned to Pike
County for a special summer event at Tievoli Hills Resort on
Hwy N off Hwy #79, two miles North of Clarksville on
Sunday, August 12, 2007

150 attendees thrilled at the outsatnding performances of
these two versatileand entertaining musicians.

The Museum Board presented this program by Jerry and Pat,
who  graciously volunteered their time and talents to benefit
the Museum.

Brunch was served, wine tasting was compliments of Crown
Valley Port House, and  a silent auction was made possible by
selections of the art work of Pike County artists.
The bald eagle was officially declared the National Emblem of the     
United States in 1782.  The American Bald Eagle’s scientific name,
Haliacetus leucocphalus, literally means “white-headed sea eagle”.

These majestic birds are one of the largest birds of prey found in
North America.  Females are slightly larger than males reaching
15 pounds, standing 3 feet tall and spreading up to 8 feet in
wingspan.  The female eagle lays 1 to 3 white eggs in March and
April.  

The bald eagle has excellent vision and on a clear day, they can see
fish from nearly 2 miles away.  Once spotted, eagles use their razor
sharp talons to catch their prey.

A mated pair of bald eagles will return to the same nest, and defend
a territory around that nest each spring.  Both eagles take turns
incubating the eggs for 34 to 40 days.

As of 1995, the bald eagle is no longer considered an endangered
species.  Harming an eagle carries an initial conviction of a one-year
jail sentence and $5,000 in fines.  

There are approximately 4,500 nesting pairs and 20,000 total birds
in the lower 48 states
