Welcome to Audubon’s Eagle Cam at Tesoro

October 10, 2008: Due to lack of funding and a signature sponsor for this program, we are unable to provide the live view of an active eagle’s nest through the EagleCam project this nesting season. If you have suggestions for sponsors and would like to donate towards this project visit our website. If you would like to get involved in our Audubon EagleWatch program, please email Lynda White for more information, or click here.

October 2008: Update on Birdie-- Birdie's Heading Home-The satellite transmitter fitted to Birdie the bald eagle in March has served us well as we seek to learn more about the migratory dispersal patterns of south Florida eagles. Birdie's excellent adventure continues, and she is now migrating south to Florida for the winter months. From the time she left Florida in mid-May, she moved steadily north, finally settling at the north end of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. This area is a popular spot with eagles in summer, particularly immature birds, and it is estimated that 50% of Florida's young bald eagles summer on the Chesapeake. Keep up with Birdie as she heads home. You can continue to track Birdie's journey here.

October 15 2008 Update: Birdie has returned to Florida. She was last recorded southeast of Gainesville on Lochloosa Lake, near Cross Creek and the site of the Audubon Center for Birds of Prey's 352nd eagle release on October 14.
