In 2012, TINS took over coordination of the annual Mid-Winter Bald Eagle Survey for the Tahoe basin. From 9am-12pm, January 14th, volunteers are paired up and stationed at 26 vantage points throughout the Tahoe basin, mostly around the lakeshore.

When registering, we ask that you provide the following information:

• Preferred location
• Are you a first time participant or a repeat participant?
• Experience level (beginner, intermediate, expert) – we will do our best to pair folks with less experience with experts
• Phone number / email
• If you prefer to be paired up with a particular person, please provide their name

The count is part of the National Midwinter Bald Eagle Survey that was initiated by the National Wildlife Federation in 1979. Over the years, the coordination of the national effort has changed hands a few times, and is currently managed by the United States Army Corps of Engineers. Most recently the survey at Lake Tahoe was coordinated by the USFS Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit.
