Reader Chad Nightingale shared the following. I couldn't put it better myself, so, here's his e-mail.
"I thought I'd share a neat observation from yesterday morning on Hulah Lake.
While the hunting was poor, I saw more Eagles in one place than I have ever seen. Using my spotting scope from the eastern edge of the lake I started counting and ended up counting 26 different Eagles.
I'm not sure if Golden's winter in the area or not but I think they were all Bald Eagles, some being juveniles.
It is also worth the drive to see the lake level. Since Bartlesville pulls water for consumption, it may end up going dry if we don't get solid rains in the near future.
To see all the dry ground on the western arm of the lake and the fact the river is a good 1/2 mile or more from actually connecting with the lake is pretty amazing.
If the weather holds and the lakes stay frozen I'd expect the eagles to stay concentrated. If you are looking for a neat excursion, head up to Hulah lake."
