We are located in the heart of one of the largest bald eagle wintering areas in the Northeast U.S. Our winter field office is in Lackawaxen, PA, (GPS coordinates: Lat 41.48181°N; Long. 74.98563° W), just across the Roebling Bridge from Minisink Ford, NY. Our program area reaches New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey locations in the Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River and Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area watersheds and the Mongaup Valley Wildlife Management Area.  

The Eagle Institute public programs are held during the winter months, when 150-200 bald eagles migrate to this region. To minimize disturbance during the breeding season, our only public program from March through July is in cooperation with the Basha Kill Area Association’s thebashakill.org Nature Watch program. We also collect data about the region’s nesting pairs and encourage participation through our Kitchen Counters Program.

The Eagle Institute relies on Volunteers, Donations and Membership Fees to deliver our public programs and services.
