Chippewa fishing talks seesaw on spearing and gillnets

Midwinter Bald Eagle Count Relies on Volunteers Across Region
A Wisconsin DNA Bureau tally aims for a two week period around January 15 to cover the Mississippi River Valley. Volunteers, not just staff, will observe between Prairie du Sac and Prairie du Chien along the Wisconsin River and Prescott to the Illinois border along the Mississippi. The piece defends amateur contributions, cites long running Breeding Bird Survey data since 1965, and urges readers to report sightings by January 25 with exact details to the DNA Bureau of Endangered Resources.
