In the late '70s, I took a group of high schoolers there on a Saturday. It was called Seashore State Park back then. We hiked for several miles through a variety of vegatation. Many of them saw their first Bald Eagle in the wild. It was perched on a piling on the edge of the Bay and most didn't believe it was a Bald Eagle until they took one look through the only pair of binoculars that we had. Then, they got really excited.
