Bald eagle count - 9

Add to Cart Add to Lightbox Download

Student Allison Stuart records the number of bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) spotted at various bald eagle spotting locations along the Chilkat River, near Haines, Alaska. Stuart was part of a class team conducting a count of bald eagles as part of their citizen science class at the Haines School. On this day (Oct. 27, 2012) the students counted 567 bald eagles. A week later (Nov. 3, 2012) the students counted 843 bald eagles. The project is part of a field-based for-credit class, sponsored by the Takshanuk Watershed Council, in which students participate in research studies and learn about field data collection. Under the guidance of Pam Randles, Takshanuk Watershed Council Education Director, students count bald eagles in the Chilkat River Valley using spotting scopes at 10 locations and present their data at the Bald Eagle Festival held in November in Haines. During late fall, bald eagles congregate along the Chilkat River to feed on salmon. This gathering of bald eagles in the Alaska Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve is believed to be one of the largest gatherings of bald eagles in the world.
