Eagles & Agriculture

 The Carson Valley agricultural and ranching community, along with the Carson Valley Visitors
Authority, the Lahontan Audubon Society, the Nature Conservancy, the Western Nevada
Resource Conservation & Development Office, the University of Nevada Cooperative Extension
and other members of conservation community will once again present the unique birds of prey
viewing and agricultural education experience, Eagles and Agriculture, February 25-27, 2011.

Eagles & Ag, now in its 9th year, provides a once a year opportunity to experience the influx of
bald eagles and other birds of prey that come to the scenic Carson Valley each year during the
winter calving season. This remarkable interaction between nature and agriculture attracts
photographers, birders and nature-lovers of all kinds who come to closely observe bald and
golden eagles, hawks, falcons, owls, and a variety of other bird and wildlife species.
The 2011 schedule of events has been broadened to allow more people to take advantage of
Eagles & Ag’s expert guides and ranch access. On Friday, February 25th, options include a
raft/kayak birding and wildlife trip on the Carson River, a Raptor Highway and Byway Tour, and
Eagles & Ag’s Welcome Dinner. The Friday Carson River trip is a new addition to the schedule as
is the Friday Raptor Tour.
