Eagle wathching in Missouri, along the Mississippi River, is an annual event in January. People from the St. Louis area go to Alton, IL, Grafton, IL and Clarksvill, MO to watch the Eagles dive for fish and otherwise scout the river. The Mississippi is a migratory flyway as the eagles migrate between North America and the Southern States.
Clarksvill has a lock and dam that attracts fish and the birds of prey. You will also find Pelicans by the dozen which are also very interesting.
