This mornings adventure began with a quiet walk by the water and turned into a Bald Eagle rescue.
As our walk began a lady pulled up with camera in hand. Of course I was curious about what was going on so following her gaze, we see a Bald Eagle struggling in the water to get to shore. At first we figured it caught something big but as it lifted itself onto a rock we saw it was injured.
One of the other bystanders quickly made a call to Hope For Wildlife to report the injured bird. Within minutes a Wildlife Rescuer showed up to catch the bird and transport it to the vet for an assessment and treatment.
Here are a couple images and a quick video of the rescue.
You will see that two of his talons are broken and rotten.
I am also not the steadiest videographer 😆
