The official Bald Eagle breeding season in Florida begins on October 1.  Birds are already returning to nesting territories around the state and will begin  engaging in mating, nest-building, and raising young throughout the fall and into the spring.   

Audubon Florida's EagleWatch Program begins its 31st season of nest monitoring involving volunteers, both new and returning,  to observe nest sites and submit data to Audubon Florida throughout the breeding season.  If you're interested in participating in this amazing community science effort to document our state's Bald Eagle population, EagleWatch is for you!

Information about EagleWatch is available on Audubon Florida's EagleWatch Program page.  Training for new and retuning but lapsed volunteers is required.  Training is free but registration is required.  Click the links below to register for the date/time that best suits your schedule.
