@hfpschmitz What’s your best guess on why eastern Indiana appears to be a band of higher risk than the area west?

[Ben Wicker @wicker_ben]

@DanEmmert Thanks for sharing, Dan. Which county board are these being put in place through? Zoning?

Growing up, a bald eagle almost seemed mythical. This fall, we started seeing a pair flying around the farm. This afternoon, one landed in the tall cottonwood in my yard.

A credit to the revitalization of a species and the stewardship of many to support that growth.
