Our final stop was at Brackendale
Every winter, thousands of bald eagles congregate on the shores of the rivers surrounding Brackendale to feed on the abundant spawning salmon. Hundreds of eagles at a time can be seen from the river dikes, feeding along sandbars or roosting in nearby cottonwood trees. Two dozen or more in a single tree is not uncommon. Eagle season in Brackendale is from mid- November to mid- February, with prime viewing in December and January.
No eagles for us , but we did sea a couple of seals in the river and watched them for a while
Finally after a long drive we reached an RV site just outside Vancouver, tomorrow we return the RV which did manage to get us there and back in one piece albeit with several problems. We now have a couple of days in Vancouver before flying home.
