A Golden Eagle Perches in a Tree

Detailed Description

A golden eagle perches in a tree at the William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon. USGS researchers are conducting research that will help support the FWS’s and energy industry efforts to reduce impacts to golden eagles from wind energy operations, including, of course, collision with the turbine blades, but also disruption of the bird’s habitat or disturbance from construction and operations.
