Anacostia Park
For Kids
 

There are two kinds of eagles at Anacostia Park.  One is the Park Police helicopter, called the Eagle.  The other are bald eagles that hunt along the river.  Both can be fun to watch. 

At Anacostia Park you can explore a river environment with your parents, roller skate, or play on the playground equipment. 

Anacostia Park offers an opportunity to explore your world, and your interests.

To see more of the eagle rescue.
