Last week I posted about the great bald eagle watching that happens in Brackendale this time each year, and on that theme is this weekend Fraser Valley Bald Eagle Festival. There are 14 venues from Mission to Chilliwack with the opportunity to see 100′s of live eagles, presentations, information booths, conversation area and hatchery tours, and more. Check out the website if you’re interested in attending.
