Did you know winter is one of... the best times to view eagles in New York State? Wintering eagles start arriving in December, with concentrations peaking in January and February.

For more information on hydroseeding, visit our blog, written by our Summer Buffer Steward, Emma Beavers. http://www.chenangoswcd.org/chenango/blog.html
