Fun in the Sullivan Catskills SULLIVAN COUNTY’S TRUE “SNOWBIRDS” ARE BALD EAGLES. It’s true. they love Sullivan County all year long. Parts of the Upper Delaware River and some of our reservoirs have open water where the eagles can find their favorite food-fresh fish! Eagles can be viewed at sites around the region. To find them use binoculars or a spotting scope (for greater magnification). The eagles are usually found perching and flying to and from the ice and treeline surrounding the water.
