Lock & Dam Eagle Counts on the Mississippi River

Each winter, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Rock Island District, conducts eagle counts to monitor the presence of the American bald eagle near locks and dams on the Mississippi and Illinois rivers. The surveys are conducted at 8:30 a.m. every Wednesday and published to the web for public information.
