| Welcome to Audubon’s
Eagle Cam at Tesoro
October 10, 2008: Due to lack of
funding and a signature sponsor for this program, we are unable
to provide the live view of an active eagle’s nest through
the EagleCam project this nesting season. If you have suggestions
for sponsors and would like to donate towards this project
visit our website.
If you would like to get involved in our Audubon EagleWatch
program, please email Lynda
White for more information, or click here.
October 2008: Update on Birdie--
Birdie's Heading Home-The satellite transmitter fitted to
Birdie the bald eagle in March has served us well as we seek
to learn more about the migratory dispersal patterns of south
Florida eagles. Birdie's excellent adventure continues, and
she is now migrating south to Florida for the winter months.
From the time she left Florida in mid-May, she moved steadily
north, finally settling at the north end of the Chesapeake
Bay in Maryland. This area is a popular spot with eagles in
summer, particularly immature birds, and it is estimated that
50% of Florida's young bald eagles summer on the Chesapeake.
Keep up with Birdie as she heads home. You can continue to
track Birdie's journey here.
October 15 2008 Update:
Birdie has returned to Florida. She was last recorded southeast
of Gainesville on Lochloosa Lake, near Cross Creek and the
site of the Audubon Center for Birds of Prey's 352nd eagle
release on October 14.
