At least six times in recent weeks, people have launched drones and harassed migrating geese at Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area.
...
The Game Commission also recently responded to a report of a drone flying close to the popular Eagle Cam nest near Hanover, York County. The drone and its operator were gone when game wardens showed up.


Thanks . I reposted your link in the Hanover nestcam thread so maybe Pat1640 can keep an eye out. I also reported the video to YouTube. Made me furious.
