Below St. Louis, Missouri
to the Kentucky/Tennessee Border
The following are sites in the area where you should can spot "baseballs." Please note that the number of bald eagles in this area, with the exception of the Kaskaskia River Lock and Dam, the Sainte Genevieve-Modoc Ferry do not compare with the number of bald eagles that can be seen north of St. Louis. If your intention is to spend a day watching bald eagles then greatriverroad.com suggests that you visit the Northern or Central areas. However, visitors in the area may want to take a detour, see some nature, and possibly a bald eagle. Reelfoot Lake is the exception to this observation as many eagles winter here and Reelfoot Lake State Park offers tours and a number of eagle programs. The sites in the area are listed in approximate geographic order following the Mississippi River from north to south. See the Southern Region area map for an overall view of eagle watching locations.
