One last Eagle Watch will be offered Feb. 25 through DNR’s Upper Wabash Interpretive Services. Due to winter weather, this has been reduced to a one-day event. 

Participants should meet at Salamonie Interpretive Center at 3 p.m., for a brief overview of Indiana’s bald eagles before caravaning to the roost. 

Participants should dress for the weather and bring binoculars, cameras and spotting scopes. Hot dogs and warm drinks will be available for a free-will donation.

There will be some walking on paved road. Those who need the available handicapped parking should request it upon registration. Participants may choose to leave the site at any time.

For the safety of the Eagle Watch participants, Frances Slocum Road between State Road 124 and County Road 550 E., Miami County, will be closed for this event. Emergency vehicles will have access, if needed.

For more information and to register call 260-468-2127.
