Bald Eagles in Northwest Arkansas

BALD EAGLES IN NORTHWEST ARKANSAS PHOTOGRAPHIC GALLERY

 (See also: Bald Eagle auto tour guide for northwest Arkansas.)

Goals of Northwest Arkansas Audubon Society include protecting birds by furthering

environmental awareness through education. This page, featuring photographs of Bald

Eagles in northwest Arkansas, showcases efforts of members and friends of NWAAS,

plus all sorts of folks who appreciate seeing our National Bird.

During the 1960s, it appeared Bald Eagles were headed for extinction in the lower 48

states. However, because the public spoke up and demanded action, passage of the

Endangered Species Act and some specific laws protecting Bald Eagles lead to a

dramatic recovery quite evident in northwest Arkansas. A few pairs of Bald Eagles

now nest here every year, and hundreds migrate from up north to spend the winter.

The presence of these dramatic birds is testimony to what folks can do when they

band together and speak up for an environment healthy for birds, people, and all

living things.
