🦅 Bald Eagles Around Aurora

Have you ever spotted one along the road as you're heading into Aurora?

Bald eagles have made a strong comeback in the Ohio River Valley over the past couple of decades. Once nearly gone from the region, they are now commonly seen soaring over the river or perched in tall trees along the shoreline.

This week I spotted one myself while heading into town and managed to grab a photo.

Eagles prefer areas near water where they can hunt fish, which makes the Ohio River and surrounding farmland perfect habitat. During the winter months especially, more eagles can often be seen along the riverbanks.

So next time you're driving along the river or heading into town, keep an eye on the treetops—you might spot one of these incredible birds watching over our little river town.
