Did you know that Caledon was once an ocean floor? Find out how fossils are created and what types can be found here as we scour parts of our Potomac shoreline that are not accessible by land for these clues to the past. On he way there, we'll discuss one of America's greatest comeback stories: the bald eagle. We'll explore the history and biology of the eagle and why so many can be found at Caledon as we watch the skies for eagles as they soar and perch over the marsh.
