What are Golden Eagles eating? And how can we find out? Head to our blog to hear from Research Associate and Ph.D. candidate Dustin Maloney on his investigation of a cutting-edge research method that he is using to get to the bottom of these questions: https://t.co/vQZfBTv55g

The numbers are in! We have been counting raptors since 1986, making this our 36th fall migration count. A HUGE thank you to our staff, crew, partners, and funders for another successful season.
