Welcome
Welcome to the 18th annual Sheffield Mills Eagle Watch in the beautiful
Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia. Hundreds of Bald Eagles come to our area
each year, and our community hosts this event to share these spectacular
birds with anyone who is interested. You will improve your chance of a
great viewing experience if you visit our designated viewing sites in the
morning. While you're here be sure to visit our Community Centre for a
delicious pancake and sausage breakfast, great music and Eagle related
exhibits. Please see the links above for detailed information about this
year's event.
