    January 30 & 31, 2010 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.
