Indiana Audubon Winter Eagle Watch: Mississinewa II

Indiana Audubon Society

Seek out some great Bald Eagle photography opportunities with Indiana Audubon.

5929 Mississinewa Dam Rd

Join Indiana Audubon (IAS) for a special look at the winter spectacle of eagles along the upper Wabash River and reservoir floodplains. Over the past decade, northern Indiana has seen a significant increase in wintering Bald Eagles. Today, this region rivals other prominent Indiana wintering sites, boasting impressive numbers. Some counts exceed 100 birds in a morning, and can make for great photographic opportunities.This special photography based field trip will meet at Mississinewa Dam Spillway on Sunday, February 8th, at 2 p.m. ET. Registered participants will meet at the Mississinewa Dam Spillway parking lot by the tailwaters. From there we'll caravan to a few areas to view both feeding and roosting eagles. This trip will spend more time at individual eagle sites to maximize photography opportunities, compared to our other eagle-watching trips. The trip is led annually by Indiana Audubon member and birder April Raver and lasts about three hours.<h3>Registration</h3>Pre-registration is required, as these annual eagle-watching field trips fill quickly and participation is limited to 20 people.
