The Samish Cheese people raise beef cattle and sometimes put out the carcasses, but not in that field as far as I know. Not sure who might have put something there, but it’s possible it was something like that.

Subject: [Tweeters] 50 Bald Eagles
I led a trip last Sunday near Edison, WA. We passed a field that had about 50 Bald Eagles in it. They were feeding on a carcass, maybe one or more, in the middle of the field. This field is half ways between Edison and the east 90. Right by the tiger float if you know where that is. It might have been a deer carcass that had been hit on the road and made it to the center of the field. But years ago, I was told that someone who raises sheep dumps the bodies of sheep who don’t make it through lambing. Does anyone know more about this? There doesn’t seem to be a lot of sheep in this area. I have seen quite a few eagles in this area before but I have never heard more on why the carcasses where there. Gary?
