A record amount of bald eagles were found at Lake Tahoe during the annual count conducted by the Tahoe Institute for Natural Science (TINS).
TINS and more than 200 volunteers searched and scoured Lake Tahoe to count the local bald eagle population.
The team found a total of 42 bald eagles for 2021, breaking the previous record count of 27 from 2017, according to a post by TINS on Take Care Tahoe. The institute credited the iconic birds recovery in the area to the Endangered Species Act of 1973.
