Vancouver Bald Eagle Video Footage

SPES eagle monitor and local eagle enthusiast Keta Kosman has been filming eagles around Vancouver (especially the Jericho nest) for the past several years.  Her footage chronicles the local eagles as they feed, mate, raise chicks and take their first flights.  Please follow the link to view some of her incredible footage or find more at her Web site: www.wildbaldeagles.ca

Our Purpose:

The Stanley Park Ecology Society promotes awareness of and respect for the natural world by playing a leadership role in the stewardship of Stanley Park through collaborative initiatives in education, research and conservation.

SPES has been actively promoting urban ecological conservation and stewardship since 1988. That's 8104 days of ecological stewardship and counting!
Help us continue to educate and promote urban ecological conservation and stewardship.
