That, no one really knows for sure. What we do know is that
they come here by the hundreds. At first glance,
you'd think you were in Alaska, except it's way easier to get here. Why so many bald eagles? It's all to do with a dam release that turns this body of water
into a fish-filled smorgasbord. (squawks) (siren) And like Pavlov's dog, the eagles know when dinner is served. LYCHENHEIM: The birds have become
so used to the sirens going off before the dam starts generating
that they start salivating

except it's way easier to get here.
00:00:14.013 --> 00:00:15.815
Why so many bald eagles?
00:00:15.881 --> 00:00:17.483
It's all to do with a dam release
00:00:17.055 --> 00:00:21.042

00:00:28.494 --> 00:00:30.696
the eagles know when dinner is served.
00:00:31.597 --> 00:00:35.368
LYCHENHEIM: The birds have become
so used to the sirens going off
00:00:35.434 --> 00:00:40.026
before the dam starts generating
that they start salivating.
