Now that the water has opened up in many of the lakes, where do you go to find eagles and other large birds of prey?

How good are you with a fishing rod in one hand and a DSLR with a long prime in the other?

Can you recommend a plan or a schedule of known bird activities?

Being from north of the equator, I am ready for spring/summer, and I would like to shoot something other than the State Fair.

I might go to the area zoos by myself this year. Usually I go with family & they want to move at a different pace than I do when taking photos.

I think I will try a small chair blind this year as well.
