R Brydge		20-Mar-2016 04:11
My Brother works at the CP Rail yards in North End & seen a Bald Eagle in January ripping apart & eating a pigeon. He thinks maybe the Nest is around McPhillips/Logan area near the water treatment plant.....

Guest		04-Mar-2016 02:39

Bald eagle flew over St. James bridge travelling west this morning at 8:30. Have spotted it (or another) many times over the past few years in the same general area.

Guest		14-Dec-2015 18:44
Today in Crestview, Winnipeg MB I saw a single bald headed eagle soaring. Facing west and maybe closer to the perimeter hwy and portage ave. Have also seen one over at Fort Whyte Centre area (Kenaston and McGillvary) as well on numerous occasions. Same one ???

Crystal		21-Mar-2015 02:23
Bald eagle spotted in Riverview on Churchill Drive near the canoe and kayak club at around 5 pm. Was on my way home from work and noticed this large bird with a white tail soaring above the river. As I wondered what it was, it turned for me to see it's big white head. So majestic and quite a special and rare sighting - first one I've seen in 15 years of living in this neighbourhood and only the fifth time I've seen one at all. The others were in Nopiming park at Tulabi Falls and by Fisher River First Nation.

Guest		18-Feb-2015 19:56
Two summers ago i went fishing to nopiming provincial park and well driving there down the road we saw something that looked black right in the center of the road by the size it just looked like a raven as i came closer i slow down and about 10 feet in front of it i honked the horn and it jumped jump up and i saw a huge white tail. Once it got of the ground i flew straight down the road for about 20 feet then flew up and turned left when it turned i saw a white head and yellow beak i was amazed that at 7:30 am there was a bald eagle eating a rabbit that had been hit by a car in the center of the road and no one else drove by and scared it off.

Guest		18-Feb-2015 19:46
saw bald eagle soaring above eaglemere going towards the perimeter highway

Guest		16-Jan-2015 18:02

Guest		20-Oct-2014 15:45
Spotted a week ago and again today. This time on templeton near pipeline rd. crow must have stolen mouse prey from eagle. First noticed crow with mouse and then eagle landed nearby in same tree. Photos from a distance with iPhone Oct 20 2014

Guest		14-Apr-2014 15:47
Driving south of the perimeter on St Mary's and noticed to eagles flying above the car circling it. It was beautiful !!

D.S.Navitka		08-Apr-2014 19:41
Was driving down the south perimeter and St. Anne s Road going east about 7:30 PM April 7, 2014 when directly overhead soared a magnificent bald eagle.

Guest		25-Dec-2013 23:51
I was watching 4 bald eagles enjoying there lunch in the trees in my backyard. It was a beautiful sight on a lovely Christmas Day.

Guest		07-Sep-2013 19:45
Saw a large bald eagle top of a tree in Lyndale park across the river from Banana Boat. Flew north down river when we walked towards it.

Ritta		16-May-2013 04:06
Ritta Saw two bald eagles today (West Kildonan Area), one soaring in circles and the other getting chased by a crow. Amazing sight.

Kat		29-Apr-2013 13:20
Saw one swoop down over the Red (East Ft. Garry) this week, pluck something from the bank and take it back to a tree to nosh. Beautiful! Wish I had my good camera ready to go as the iPad just couldn't capture the moment.

Ron		21-Feb-2013 02:18
My brother works for CP Rail as a switch-man at the Yards in the North End & he recently seen an adult Bald Eagle in the Yard rippin apart pigeons in the vicinity of the Arlington Bridge, so I guess they are still in the City. This is the 1st I heard of Bald Eagles in the City. I cant wait to see it myself......

Guest		19-Feb-2013 18:30
large eagle flew just over my head while walking on the river by maryland bridge, amazing, outstandig, took my breath away, it landed a few abut 20 feet in a tree and watched myself and my 2 dogs pass by jana

jaret		03-Feb-2013 22:04
i just saw a bald eagle fly over my house in south osborne!!! i followed it but lost its tracks pretty quickly. still, it was pretty cool

Christine		26-Jan-2013 23:14
Yes! I'm so happy others are seeing the eagle(s) this winter. I've seen 3 (or maybe one eagle 3 separate times): once it was roosting in a tree along the river in Assiniboine Park; once it was flying over the theatre district just behind the museum; and most recently it soared over Gordon Bell High School near Portage & Maryland. All sightings in the past month.

Maureen		09-Jan-2013 22:58
My son saw a bald eagle this afternoon in the St. Laurent area. I know that bald eagles migrate. Is it possible that some may stay here (in Manitoba) for the winter.

Ryan		07-Jan-2013 01:09
I saw 2 eagles today sitting on the trees eating cantaloupes. quite an amazing site..

Kathy		21-Nov-2012 02:24
I saw FOUR bald eagles today just south west of Ile Des Chenes on my way to work this morning. AMAZING!!!

mchristie		18-Nov-2012 02:35
The Bald Eagle is still circling over Taylor bridge in Headingley. Just saw it again on Friday. It must be the same one from my last message.

Mike		16-Nov-2012 18:55
Saw a Bald Eagle gliding in circles over Arctic & Bell in Winnipeg this morning! Blew my mind, no idea there were bald eagles in Winnipeg.

pat		21-Feb-2012 03:51
I saw a bald eagle in Strathclair on Saturday afternoon!

Lorainne		15-Feb-2012 23:09
I was thrilled to see a bald eagle sitting on a lamp post on Jubilee Avenue by Riverview Drive at shortly before noon today. The bird was quite large , his white head and yellow beak easily visible from the street. Feb 15 2012

Ian		10-Feb-2012 16:37
Saw two Bald Eagles on Leclaire Road in RM Richot this morning

Hill		02-Jan-2012 05:12

Peter		17-Nov-2011 17:23
I was picking up my daughter at St Germain School on John Forsythe on Weds the Nov 16th in St Vital when at 11:10 a bald eagle flew right over the school at an elevation of maybe 100 - 150 feet heading west. It was a magnificent sight and the only time I had ever seen a bald eagle in Manitoba. Very rare occurence indeed. Peter

Yes in-deed at this time of year we often see Eagles soaring over head as they migrate South...we are also seeing more and more Eagles winter over if the food source is good. Make sure to keep your eyes sky-ward.

Guest also		15-Nov-2011 22:48
I just had my entire week made!! An eagle - in Winnipeg!! Flying right over the office on Dovercourt! I've never seen anything so beautiful in this city! I didn't even know we had eagles in Manitoba.

Guest		15-Nov-2011 20:11
Just seen an eagle soaring above Selkirk & Keewatin in Winnipeg.

Anne		29-Mar-2011 21:56
An eale was resting on a bale on March 25 in the Virden area of the Assiniboine Valley. There are lots of winter kill deer here. Further north I saw an eagle and several ravens eyeing eachother over the carcass of a deer off in a field. When I was a child over 40 years ago I had never seen a bald eagle in Manitoba. We started seeing them about 30 years ago.

Guest		27-Feb-2011 18:12
On Friday Feb 18 I saw a bald eagle swoop through my backyard. I watched it fly eastward over my neighbors yards and disappear into the distance. I live in north Transcona and was very surprised to see such a magnificent creature. Earlier in the day I had put up a bird feeder in my yard and I wonder if the little birds had attracted the attention of the eagle. Coincidence...perhaps.

Ashley Hockenberry		21-Jan-2011 15:06

Guest		18-Jan-2011 16:51

MChristie		02-Dec-2010 03:07
Today at 4pm on the Taylor Bridge in Headingley, it was there!! I thought they went south! There was a active nest behind a client of ours in Marsdon Meadows in Headingley. Could that be his/hers?

DON GEVERS		14-Nov-2010 15:28
9 AM NOVEMBER 14 GROVE ST. AND ROVER AVE. A HUGH BALD EAGLE FLEW OVER OUR HEADS AS WE TALKED. WOW THIS BIRD HAD AT LEAST A FIVE FOOT WING SPAN. A BREATHTAKING SIGHT FIRST THING IN THE DAY, TOTALLY UNEXPECTED.

Guest		22-Oct-2010 01:40
i have seen lots of eagles in the country while hunting, but tonight I found two adults about 50 meteres from my fence, sitting on the ground cleaning up a nice big Canada Goose. I live in Southland Park, across from the Mint. We have a large field behind our house that is used as pasture for a bunch of cattle in summer because there is a low spot filld with water most of the summer. There's about 1-2 feet of water so the geese are here in the thousands. Come down Royal Mint Drive and the field is on the south-east side of the street.There's a tree line across the field and a couple of large nests are visible in the trees.

Bill		10-Oct-2010 03:24
On wednesday by Nestor Falls Ont. we saw a group of about nine bald eagles in a valley in a swamp with a beaver dam in the middle. We found it odd that there were so many in one area. I often see one also in south St Norbert.

Guest		12-Feb-2010 04:11
There is an eagle outside of my work off of Logan Avenue.

Guest		18-Jan-2010 05:00

Dave		22-Dec-2009 05:58
Saw a bald eagle flying over the South parking lot of Kildonan Place Shopping Center along Regent Ave. at around 12:15 in the afternoon. It was flying East then turned and began circling above the parking lot of the East Winds strip mall across the street. Lost sight of it as we continued to drive West on Regent. What a majestic bird, could not believe we saw it at first!

EA		22-Dec-2009 02:40
I took some pics of an Eagle perched atop a pole on Arctic ave. off of River ave. just across the river from St Boniface hospital.

Rob		06-Apr-2007 19:14
We saw two of them today (April 5) in St. Vital near St. Vital Park, flying in huge circles over the river.

Janie		05-Mar-2007 18:16
Hi, I was driving over Chief Peguis bridge last fall and saw what I thought was a bald eagle on top of one of the big trees on the north side of the bridge and almost drove off the road, thought I was seeing things. After reading I am not alone I do feel better, but was hesitant to tell anyone what I saw, the last thing I would want to happen is crowds running to take a peek.

charlene		12-Aug-2006 04:13
Hi Dave - I am a friend of Lew and Anne's - great photos - love the eagles especially too. I saw one on Henderson Hwy. floating high above the Petro Canada plant near Hoddinott and then another one (or the same) circling over the Perimeter bridge between Henderson and Main Street. Charlene

David Collignon		10-Apr-2006 11:44
Hi Dennis Great eagle shots. My favorite bird. Suprised you found them around the city. I've seen them around the outskirts.....mainly north of the city. What kind of lens did you use to get that close Dave www,pbase.com/dncollignon davecoll@mts.net
