Join Eagle Watches at Georges Island

Trail Conference members and the general public are invited to join Christopher Letts and Tom Lake for Bald Eagle Watches at Georges Island Park along the Hudson River in Montrose, NY, January 13 and 19 at 2 pm, and February 10 at 3 pm.

During the past 19 years the number of wintering bald eagles on the lower Hudson River has steadily increased. These birds are sometimes viewable in impressive numbers, and are often to be seen fishing, feeding, and interacting. No guarantees for sightings, but Letts and Lake promise to guide visitors to the best viewing areas in the lower Hudson and discuss eagle life in New York during all seasons. High-powered spotting scopes and running commentary made available. No charge.

These programs all meet at the lower parking lot in Georges Island Park in Montrose. The entrance is off the Old Post Road (Route 9A), just to the north of the FDR Veterans Hospital. Turn at the County Park sign and proceed 1 mile to the park and waterfront.
