JOHNSTON, Iowa (May 11, 2021) — Join Iowa PBS virtually on Tuesday, June 22, 7PM, for a VIP Watch Party featuring NOVA: Eagle Power. This program takes viewers into the lives of these spectacular birds, following a nest of bald eaglets as they face everything from sibling rivalries to insect swarms and learn the skills they'll need to survive. Meanwhile, researchers study one special golden eagle, using cutting-edge filming technology, to capture her hunting techniques and flight-maneuvers.
After the program, members of the Decorah-based Raptor Resource Project will join the conversation live to discuss the Decorah eagles, which are featured in this national program. Through the online shared media viewing platform, audience members can discuss the film, share resources and ask questions during the live discussion.
"We are excited to continue educating the world about the bald eagle through this NOVA special," said John Howe, executive director of the Raptor Resource Project. "We encourage attendees to come with questions about our eagles."
