Low salmon returns could explain Brackendale eagle count

CBC News reports that the low salmon returns on the Cheakamus River may be responsible for a reduced number of bald eagles in Brackendale this winter.  Typically Brackendale enjoys a large population of wintering eagles that come to feed on the salmon carcasses, but this year’s count was much lower than in recent years.
