The Wings Over Water Research Institute is dedicated to the long-term monitoring of bald eagles and fish-eating waterbird populations as sensitive indicators of water quality. We produce high-quality research, outreach and education, providing the data needed to manage avian populations and engage the public on critical environmental issues and act. Founded in 2025, WOWRI was created to fill research funding cuts, build on long-running studies that are the foundation of this important work, and create a new model for funding environmental research.
When you sign up for our emails, you’ll receive updates that show exactly how your support helps our mission of research and monitoring fish-eating birds as indicators of water quality and environmental health and inspiring change to make a difference. You’ll be the first to hear about successes, needs, and opportunities to get involved.
