Hey All,

The bald eagle nest is actually in a pine that grows in Broadmoor, on the
golf course, adjacent to the Washington Park Arboretum. Park in the Duck Bay
lot, walk along the Foster Island trail northeast of the Broadmoor entrance,
press your nose to the chain link, and gaze east. Make small course
adjustments, to the south, to the south, to the south, until you spy a pine
with nothing much on top and a huge mass of sticks below.

Or drive to McGilvra Elementary, which is located in Madison Park. (Drive
east towards the lake on E. Madison Street and make the first left after you
pass the "official" Broadmoor entrance.) Park near the school and walk onto
the golf course via the entrance directly behind the elementary school. Walk
boldly on the path toward the north end of the golf course. As you approach
the northern end of the golf course look up. And look white.

Wallis
