[Paddlewise] Bird watching by kayak

Audubon EagleWatch: The Florida Audubon Society runs statewide network of
volunteers to monitor bald eagles nests. Information gathered by the
volunteers is compiled and used in the Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Commission.

Many of the eagles nest near the water in areas which are
impossible/difficult to reach by car, on foot, or most boats.  But we
kayakers can go where no one else can!  Soooo....I volunteered to spy on
eagle nests once every two weeks via kayak.  Last Sunday, we spotted 3 nests
and 8 bald eagles in the Sarasota area.  Hope my adoped eagles stay well and
healthy and provide me with some quiet time on the water.
