EagleWatch and winter wildlife boat tours and programs at the Connecticut River Museum begin on Jan. 30 and will run through March 15. The museum will offer an exhibit, boat tours, public programs and workshops.

Opening on Jan. 31, the "Eagles of Essex" exhibit tells the story of bald eagles along the Connecticut River. In addition to an interactive eagle nest, the exhibit illustrates how to identify birds of prey and where the best land-viewing spots are located. A Community Photography section is also part of the exhibit. Amateur photographers who capture a strong image of an eagle or other wintering bird along the Connecticut River are invited to submit their digital entry to curator Amy Trout at atrout@ctrivermuseum.org.
