Birds of Prey Program at Eagle Nest Lake State Park

Eagle Nest Lake sits high in the Moreno Valley, where cool air and mountain views set the scene for wildlife watching. This Birds of Prey program is an easy morning outing for families, with staff sharing identification tips and habitat stories for raptors that patrol the lake and nearby ridgelines.Plan for crisp temperatures even in May. After the talk, drive the Enchanted Circle for panoramic pullouts, or pack a picnic for the lake’s day-use areas before continuing on to nearby hiking trails around Red River and Taos.
