Voyageurs National Park is an excellent place to observe bald eagles and osprey. For photography, you will need a long prime or zoom lens to capture their flight. 300mm on a 1.6x crop DSLR is a good start, with more reach the better. A standard point and shoot will do the job with landscapes, while a 18-55mm zoom on a 1.6x crop DSLR will be more than enough for landscapes. The lake raptors of Voyageurs National Park will be out in daylight. But if you are after some of the woodland birds, search forest meadow edges in low light hours.
