    Bald eagle spotted along Mission Reach in South San Antonio

    Bald eagle spotted along Mission Reach in South San Antonio



    In a post sent to the San Antonio River Authority’s Facebook page, the organization said since mid-December, a young adult bald eagle has been spotted on different occasions at various locations along the Mission Reach.

    “It is unusual to see one this close to the urban core of San Antonio, but ecological improvements to the Mission Reach provide a natural corridor for wildlife to venture in this area,” SARA said in the post.

    According to SARA, experts who have seen the bald eagle believe the bird is not fully mature after studying it because it has “the striking white head and tail of an adult, but the tip of its tail is still dark.”

    As their numbers grow, they are expanding their territory. We have had them back in our area regularly for at least 5 years though there were sporadic sightings prior to that.

    I sail on Cherokee Lake in Jefferson City TN. There have been several sighting there as well.

    They are beautiful creatures.
