Dear Eagle Optics Customers and Partners,

Eagle Optics has been a sport optics retailer for over 30 years, and has evolved through many big changes. Whether these changes have been in the birding community, in sport optics design, or in the overall marketplace, Eagle Optics has always approached these changes with the customers’ best interest first in mind. In recent years though, it has become ever more challenging to run a specialized sport optics business in the online landscape.

With that in mind, the Eagle Optics owners and staff have decided to cease all business operations on Dec 31, 2017. As always, Eagle Optics recognizes that without our customers and partners, we could not have been successful in our support of the birding community and bird conservation these many years. We want to thank you and are eternally grateful for the relationships, partnerships, and community we have built together.

As part of ceasing business operations, we are offering exciting sales opportunities. Please visit www.eagleoptics.com for these sales, or call us at 1-800-289-1132. We also understand that you may have questions about this change, and we invite you to visit our information page here for more details or to call us at 1-800-289-1132.

Forty-eight years ago today, man landed on the moon. Your binoculars are a great way to see finer details on the lunar surface, so take your optics with you the next time you gaze up at the moon. This photo was digiscoped by EO's Adrian Lesak using a Swarovski ATX spotting scope.

A fascinating story about the West’s newest--and now one of its rarest--bird species: the Cassia Crossbill.

Instilling an appreciation and fascination for birds and nature in a future generation prompted Florida State University professors and students to host a Biodiversity Fair this spring at a primary school in Panama. One of the 12 education stations featured Eagle Optics Denali binoculars for the FSU staff to use in teaching the students how to read color bands on a Lance-tailed Manakin model. Eagle Optics proudly supports vital programs such as this to build a strong bond between upcoming generations and the world's population of birds.

The butterflies are really popping here in the woods, savannas, and prairies of southern Wisconsin. EO's Mike McDowell recently photographed this beautiful Eastern Tailed-Blue at the nearby Pleasant Valley State Natural Area.
