Bald Eagle Banding April 17, 2007
Arborists Nate Jones and Tim Nuckols from Nuckol's Tree Care climb to the nest and prepare to lower the eaglets one at a time.
The first eaglet is prepared for a descent to the biologists waiting below.
The first eaglet - a female - arrives on the ground
Wildlife biologists Dr. Bryan Watts and Libby Mojica measure and evaluate the health of the eaglet.
