South Lake Whatcom Park is a great place to spot eagles because nearby Fir Creek is filled with Kokanee salmon this time of year. There are a couple different ways we can get to the lake where we'll also see gulls and other waterfowl. Once we've had our fill of eagle watching we can cross the road and visit the Whatcom Land Trust property called Ladies of the Lake. This is a 100-acre property in the Lake Whatcom Watershed and contains riparian habitat along Fir Creek, an open field, and a steep forested hillside. Wear boots or other footwear to protect your feet from water as it probably will be muddy.
