USDA's Natural Resources
Conservation Service Chief Dave
White recently announced
increased funding to protect sage
grouse populations and habitat in
North Dakota and 10 other western
states.
"'USDA will continue to provide
significant resources to enhance and
preserve sage grouse habitat and sus-
tain working ranches and farms in
the western United States." White
said in a prepared statement. "The
sage grouse initiative supports both
sustainable ranching and healthy
sage-grouse populations by focusing
on improving rangeland conditions."
This fiscal year. NRCS will pro-
vide up to $30 million in the 11
states where sage-grouse are found
- California. Colorado. Idaho.
Montana. Nevada, North Dakota.
Oregon. South Dakota. Utah.
rouse population
Washington and Wyoming.
Producers in these states can apply
for financial assistance to improve
sage-grouse habitat or to reduce
threats, such as habitat fragmenta-
tion. to the birds.
"This as a significant program
that meets a dual purpose; conser-
vation of an iconic species and
improved management of grazing
lands." said Paul Sweeney, NRCS
state conservationist in Bismarck.
"'We are finding that practices
implemented to improve sage
grouse habitat are the same prac-
tices required to maintain healthy
grazing land for livestock."
North Dakota will be provided
$500.000 for this initiative. Signups
for the initiative are continuous: an
application cut-off date for this fis-
cal year has not yet been deter-
mined.

44 eagles counted on survey
The annual mid-winter bald eagle
survey conducted Jan. 6 along the
Missouri River from Bismarck to the
Garrison Dam revealed 44 bald
eagles, according to Patrick T.
Isakson, nongame biologist for the
North Dakota Game and Fish
Department.
The aerial survey is conducted
nationwide to estimate the number of
bald eagles wintering in the lower 48
states. "We count the birds as close to
a target date as possible to minimize
the chance that birds are counted
more than once." Isakson said.
The number of bald ehgles win-
tering in the state generally depends
on the amount of open water and
availability of prey - fish and water-
fowl. "'This year's count was slightly
above average, a bit of a surprise as
waterfowl numbers along the
Missouri River are low," Isakson
said. "A majority of the eagles count-
ed were in a stretch of fiver from
Stanton to the Garrison Dam. the
area with the highest concentration
of waterfowl."
Eagles are relatively easy to spot
as they prefer to perch in large cot-
tonwood trees along the river. Adult
bald eagles have a white head and
tail and a dark brown body, while
immature bald eagles are brown with
irregular white plumage. Golden
eagles, which are also counted, are
dark in color and have a gold cap on
their head.
