Back off fella

RIVER VALLEY — This eaglet seems to have been less than happy about being photographed recently in the nest by Peter Nye, wildlife biologist of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.

On May 29, Nye climbed a tall tree at the undisclosed nest location to tag several young bald eagles. The birds were estimated to be about four-and-a-half weeks old.
