Join Friends of the Columbia Gorge on Tuesday, Feb. 16 from 6-7:30 p.m. for a free, live webinar exploring eagle winter migration, behavior, and biology; the history of the Gorge Eagle Watch program; local efforts to protect migrant and resident eagle populations; and viewing opportunities for these top predators in the Columbia Gorge.
The presentations will be followed by a moderated Q&A session and the webinar will include the debut of a special, original eagle short film co-produced by Friends and Story Gorge for this year's virtual Eagle Watch efforts.
“As a pandemic safe, virtual alternative, to our popular annual eagle hikes, this February, Friends is participating in the 11th annual Eagle Watch, a month of special online programming in partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Columbia Gorge Discovery Center, Rowena Wildlife Clinic, Story Gorge, and the U.S. Forest Service,” said a press release.
