IN-PERSON PROGRAM
Have you heard the beautiful giggle-like call of the bald eagles in Stanley Park? Mating pairs of bald eagles have returned to their nests and have been delighting us with their social vocalizations and impressive courtship displays. Come join SPES Educator Anna Bondartchouk for a look at two of the eagle nests found in the Park, witness how bald eagles are preparing for raising eaglets this summer, and learn how Stanley Park Ecology Society monitors nest success.
ABOUT “EYES ON EAGLES” SERIES
Bald eagles are beautiful birds of prey that are both important to coastal and forest ecosystems, as well as an important animal in many cultures. Here, on Coast Salish land and waters, these birds build impressive nests that they care for year after year. They are truly amazing animals that hold our respect and appreciation. Stanley Park Ecology Society monitors nest activity and fledgling success in Stanley Park. Join us for “Eyes on Eagles” to learn about the unique lives of these incredible birds, from their courtship and raising eaglets, to young eagles leaving the nest and soaring into their own lives.
