Bald Eagle Restoration Project

Bald Eagle.jpg

Did you know that in 1976 there was only one pair of nesting bald eagles in New York State? This program includes photos by Peter Nye and Gene Weinstein that show how to find eagles, the changes that take place as the eagle mature, eagles at play, their courtship and mating, how they are banded and a comparison between the bald eagle and the golden eagle.  The NYS Bald Eagle Restoration project was created and implemented by Peter Nye, former leader of the Endangered Species Unit of the DEC. If you are interested in the bald eagle as an endangered species and what has been accomplished, you will be fascinated by this project that Gene Weinstein has worked on for 40 years that ultimately brought the bald eagle back to NYS.
