This paper discusses the results of a research project that examined the wintering bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) population in the Squamish Valley, British Columbia. It also examines the way in which the community incorporated and modified the recommendations of the research project to suit its needs. The Squamish Valley has long been known as a major wintering ground for bald eagles in North America. The many recent years there was a groundswell of concern regarding the health of the wintering population as records from midwinter counts suggested a downward trend in eagle numbers. Spurred by this concern, the Nature Conservancy of Canada initiated a research project, later funded by Forest, Renewal BC, that explored the distribution and seasonal changes in eagle numbers in the valley over three winters. The results demonstrated seasonal shifts in eagle population, and suggested actions to curtail these threats...
