Annual bald eagle workshop set for Flagstaff
Feb 11, 2008

Have you ever wondered where eagles go during the winter?  Have you ever seen a bald eagle? Come learn more about bald eagles and see them in their natural environment at the Arizona Game and Fish Department's Annual Bald Eagle Workshop in Flagstaff on Saturday, Feb. 23.  
    
The free workshop will be divided into two sessions; each one will include a lecture followed by a field trip to observe eagles. The first session will begin at 9 a.m. and the second session at 11 a.m.  The lectures will be held at the Arizona Game and Fish Department office located at 3500 S. Lake Mary Rd.  
    
 Guest speaker James Driscoll, raptor management coordinator for Game and Fish, will talk about wintering bald eagles, Arizona's resident eagle population and eagle identification. 
    
"This workshop has always been a big success here in Flagstaff, and we expect a great turnout again this year," says Arizona Game and Fish Public Information Officer Shelly Shepherd.  "It is great to see so many people interested in wildlife in northern Arizona."
