BLM Winter Bucket List #6: Lake Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, for the Annual Eagle Count

In many parts of the country, it’s rare to catch a glimpse of a bald eagle, but imagine seeing scores of them in a single day. When winter weather arrives in Canada, large numbers of eagles decide it’s time to move along, and one of their favorite stops is Lake Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.

So what’s the attraction for these stunning birds? A plentiful supply of spawned-out kokanee salmon in the lake.

From November to February each year, the BLM records the eagle migration - a record 240 eagles were spotted in just one day in 2013. The spectacle becomes a regional attraction – with activities, tours and boat rides on the lake.

You can join the activities during Eagle Week or plan a quiet visit. Learn more: blm.gov/g3ld
