Mine was holding one on my lap for fifty miles while taking it to the rehabber!

It ( the Golden Eagle) may be able to be released as early as next month. :-))
The plan is to bring it back and release it where I captured it near Grand
Coulee. That will be a far greater thrill then when I caught it.

they droop, released they flee to the mountains."

Can we keep captive something we claim to love? Oh what a selfish love that must
be that is of no benefit to that which is captured. A longer life span you say?
Give me freedom for a year, rather then 20 in captivity.

I had my 60th birthday this month and it seems all life becomes more precious
each year.
