Paramus NJ, Paramus Councilman Robert Kaiser spotted a Bald Eagle in Paramus on Wednesday .
Bergen County, New Jersey, is known for its diverse wildlife, and it is indeed possible to spot bald eagles in the area. The bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is a majestic bird of prey and the national bird and symbol of the United States.
Bald eagles typically prefer habitats near large bodies of water, such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs, where they can find an abundant food supply of fish and waterfowl. Some notable locations in Bergen County where bald eagle sightings have been reported in the past include the Hackensack River, Overpeck Creek, and the Oradell Reservoir.
If you’re interested in spotting bald eagles in Bergen County, here are a few tips:
- Research local birding hotspots: Check with local birdwatching or wildlife organizations to learn about specific areas where bald eagles have been sighted recently.
- Visit during the right season: Bald eagles are more commonly seen in the winter months, between November and March, as they migrate south in search of food and suitable nesting grounds.
- Bring binoculars or a camera: Bald eagles are known for their impressive wingspan, but they can be difficult to spot from a distance. Binoculars or a camera with a telephoto lens can help you observe and capture their beauty more closely.
- Be patient and observant: Bald eagles are known for their soaring flight patterns, and they may spend a significant amount of time perched high in trees near water sources. Take your time and scan the area carefully for any signs of their presence.
Remember to always observe wildlife from a safe distance and avoid disturbing their natural behavior or habitats.
