Bald Eagle populations in Kansas have grown considerably since 1989 when the first nest in Kansas was reported. In 2020, the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks partnered with Conservation Science Global, the U.S. Geological Survey, and Evergy, to conduct a three year study to learn more about the movements of Kansas' bald eagles. Tanna and Lyndzee are joined by Zac Eddy, KDWP Terrestrial Ecologist, and Dr. Tricia Miller, Executive Director at Conservation Science Global to tell us more about this exciting project, how it got started, and what we're learning about the movements of bald eagles.
