Wabasha, Minnesota offers a unique opportunity to see both of North America’s eagle species in the wild. Both bald and golden eagles can be seen in their natural habitats in the Upper Mississippi River Valley and driftless region.
The National Eagle Center is offering Eagle Viewing Field Trips this winter. You can learn more about eagles in the Upper Mississippi River Valley and get great views of bald and golden eagles in the wild on a guided tour with Education Director Scott Mehus.
Field trips begin with a brief classroom program, followed by a tour via coach bus to prime bald or golden eagle viewing locations. Bring your binoculars or spotting scope for an up close view. If you don’t have binoculars, we’ll have extras to share with the group. Afterwards, return to the National Eagle Center for light refreshments and a chance to share photos and stories from the trip. Cost is $25 for NEC members, $35 for non-members.
