2016 Lake of the Ozarks Eagle Days
Missouri is one of the leading states to spot our national bird, the bald eagle. Owning a home at the Lake of the Ozarks gives you some wonderful opportunities to go bird watching for these magnificent creatures. If you would like to see a few up close and personal, then you should make plans to attend the 16th Annual Lake of the Ozarks Eagle Days. It will take place January 9 & 10, 2016 at various locations.
This is a free event that proves living at the Lake of the Ozarks can be just as much fun in the winter as it is in the summer. There is always something going on to keep lake life interesting. Eagles make nests wherever they can find plenty of food and open water. These factors are what makes the lake so attractive to these birds.
The very first Eagle Days at the Lake had 651 participants, and in 2015 it had grown to over 3,700 in attendance. This year the weekend will feature many activities, including:
There will be plenty of interesting features for every age. Naturalists from the World Bird Sanctuary will be answering questions, and the Dickerson Park Zoo is presenting programs also. Activities for children will be available, and there will also be vendors on hand.
This is just one of the many wonderful annual events that happen here. If you are ready to buy a home at the Lake of the Ozarks and experience a few of them, give me a call. My mid-Missouri real estate agency has access to a wide variety of beautiful houses. Maybe I can even find you one with a bald eagle or two for a neighbor.

Everyone is encouraged to bring along binoculars to keep an eye out for eagles. Willmore Lodge and the area below Bagnell Dam are excellent spots for bird-watching. Bring your cameras too. You will be able to get some wonderful photos during the live presentations, and you might even be lucky enough to capture some great shots in the wild.
There are plenty of volunteer opportunities available if you would like to get involved. Individuals and organizations are needed to park cars, be greeters, oversee activities, and more.
