Wish I could hear this Chris but have eschewed zoom. It's a great story nationwide. I had the honor of being the first survey and banding crews in the Chesapeake Bay Region back in the early 70s. These were done by a group called the Raptor Information Center under the aegis of The National Wildlife Foundation. We based in the DC/MD area and worked the watershed of three states. A handful of nests in the whole area and very low reproduction rate at the beginning. Climbing into an eagle nest was amazing and locked me into ornithology for life and a new career field. It is so satisfying to see the tremendous increase in these terrific birds with the less than ferocious voices!
