Eagle Watching at Salamonie and Mississinewa Reservoirs
Sunday, February 19 2012, 3:00pm - 8:00pm

Note -- Two sessions one on the 18th and the other on the 19th you choose which day you want to attend.

We encourage members to take advantage of a wonderful opportunity to see eagles at Mississinewa Reservoir, near Peru, Indiana. On both February 18 and 19, the knowledgeable staff of the DNR Upper Wabash River Interpretive Services will conduct a short presentation inside the Salamonie Reservoir Nature Center at 3 p.m. before heading out to see eagles at their night roost. In 2011, participants were able to view as many as 40 eagles in a single view! At its peak, the roost had over 150 eagles!

To register, call Upper Wabash Interpretive Services at (260) 468-2127. Pre-registration is required. Participants can drive their own vehicles while driving between Salamonie Reservoir and eagle-watching locations or be driven in a van with interpretive staff. Van occupancy is first-come, first-served through pre-registration.

There is a short amount of walking involved.

  • Construction Season Comes To An End

    It's quite probable that "construction season" and Amos W. Butler Audubon have never been used in the same sentence.  But, indeed, I am here to report that construction season has come to an end for Amos W. Butler Audubon.  Construction,[…]

  • A Young Peregrine's First Migration

    Several birders observed an immature Peregrine Falcon at Eagle Creek Park, Indianapolis, on October 1, 2011. By itself, the sighting was not very significant. Peregrines are regularly seen in migration cruising through the park, scattering other birds as they look[…]
