Male bald eagle flying overhead.We recommend that eagle watchers join us on a Guided Habitat Excursion for their first Eagle Watch! outing. Check our annual winter Calendar to learn where and when those trips are planned. Trained guides provide in-depth informetion before, during and after the excursion. Participants ride on a heated bus and help us collect data. No need to worry about finding the various viewing locations.

You'll want to dress warmly and in layers and wear waterproof boots. Much of your time may be spent sitting and waiting on the bus, so snacks are always helpful! We have extra binoculars and spotting scopes, but it is always helpful to bring your own if you have. Birding field guides help fill the time between sightings.
