Michael Scheibel will present "Eagles on Long Island"
Michael Scheibel is the Natural Resources Manager of the 2,039 acre
Mashomack Preserve on Shelter Island. Part of Mike's duties include
protection and observation of a pair of Bald Eagles that have nested there.
Is this a trend due to improved environmental conditions, overcrowding in
more traditional nesting sites, or other reasons?
Mike was hired by the Nature Conservancy (TNC) in 1994 as Project
Manager to direct conservation planning for the privately acquired Robins
Island. In 1996, he accepted his present position. Prior to working for
TNC, Mike was a Senior Wildlife Biologist for the New York State Department
of Environmental Conservation in Stony Brook. During the two decades of
working for the Bureau of Wildlife, he initiated a study of the local
endangered species program. This included osprey, bald eagles, piping
plover, and tiger salamander.
