KY F&W: Give nesting eagles the space they need Researchers have documented more than 150 pairs of nesting eagles in Kentucky this season. The bald eagle was absent from Kentucky's landscape for decades. That began to change after the United States banned the use of the pesticide DDT in 1972 and a nationwide re-introduction effort in the 1970s and 1980s helped restore the majestic bird. Kentucky documented its first pair of nesting eagles in almost 40 years in 1986. Click on headline for complete story, portrait From Kentucky Fish & Wildlife FRANKFORT, Ky.

"But we don't want to stay so long that we disturb them."
