A Bald Eagle was observed on the ice and then later in a tree. It was scavenging on something (fish carcass?) lodged in the ice. American Crows harassed the Eagle for a while and then left. The Eagle left after about 20 minutes and did not return. This is the first Bald Eagle we have observed on lower Chemong Lake over the past two years. Cloudy conditions and snow hampered efforts to photograph the Eagle.
