I live in northeast Ohio, and over the last two years, we have started having issues with golden eagles. We live in a suburban area and have raised two Ancona ducks for the last 9yrs. The eagles normally show up in February and terrorize us until April. In 2016 one of them swopped down and started eating my duck(she survived). This has given me severe PTSD. Whenever they look like they're closing in on our girls, we use loud noises to deter them from going in for the attack. Besides that, and putting myself between the eagles and the ducks, I haven't had much luck with anything else.
