Bald Eagles of the Merrimack River, Joppa Flats Education Center, Newburyport, Sunday, February 5th, 2012

Where: Meet at the Joppa Flats Education Center, One Plum Island Turnpike, Newburyport, MA
Cost: Adults $18.00 for members; $21.00 for non-members
If you want to explore the local area and look for wintering bald eagles in the Greater Newburyport/Plum Island area, join Jock Purcell and Nancy Purcell of Mass Audubon’s Joppa Flats Education Center, Newburyport, on Sunday morning as they search for bald eagles in the region
Deep winter is the best time to find bald eagles locally, and the lower Merrimack River is the best place to find them.
The swift currents and tidal flow in the Merrimack River keep portions of the river ice-free during the winter, providing critical feeding habitat for ducks and other wintering birds.
Local bald eagles may nest elsewhere in New England during the summer when food is plentiful, but in the winter when most lakes and rivers are frozen, they know they can come to the Merrimack River to find the ducks, fish, and carrion they need to survive.
