January 29 & 30, 2011 are the dates for Clarksville Eagle Days week-end. This event is sponsored by Missouri Department of Conservation, City of Clarksville and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Live eagle programs, videos, displays, activities for children and conservation gifts for sale will be available in the Apple Shed Theater (not heated). The Visitor Center will be open for a “warmer” opportunity for viewing and additional information. Spotting scopes, volunteers to assist you and a bonfire will be awaiting you in River Front Park. Eagle season in Clarksville is open and the Eagles are arriving in large numbers. Bald eagles migrate down from the Great Lakes states and central Canada to this area where they find safe resting areas and an ample food supply. Winter is a difficult time for them. Conserving energy to keep warm is important. Although the majestic and graceful flight of the Eagle is beautiful to see, it quickly burns up necessary energy. Because of their excellent vision the eagle is able to see a fish from a mile or more away. Bald Eagles feed primarily on fish and consume approximately 1 to 2 pounds of food per day. They can fly at some 65 miles per hour and dive at speeds of over 150 miles per hour. Standing about 3 feet tall and spreading up to an 8-food wingspan, the eagle can soar for hours and can even use their wings to swim if necessary. One of the amazing and delightful experiences of the 2009 season was found in seeing so many immature eagles, an indication that the population is continuing to increase. The Department of Conservation has recently added to availability for parking along the river front in Clarksville by supplying gravel for the parking area and pouring a new handicap pad facing the river. The parking lot has been filled often in the last three weeks as guests from far and near arrive to observe and photograph the symbolic national birds in action. Throughout town flyers will also direct you to the opportunities for food and shopping. Come enjoy this distinct experience. Jo Anne Smiley, Mayor |
