11th Of November, Sunday, Veterans Day - We were honored to join hundreds of other people to welcome a young 2 year old Female Bald Eagle back to the wild where she belongs. She was found injured at a Grant County High School, injured she was unable to fly. Indiana Conservation Officer Corp. Josh Kilgore and Soarin' Hawk Volunteer Lynanne Dennison-Fager rushed to her aid.
Once captured she was found to have a broken leg, feather mites had destroyed her flying feathers. Low on energy, injured, and weighted down by the revenges of parasites, she just couldn't fly. So She was brought to the Soarin' Hawk Rehabilitation Center. And after 2 years of care, she was brought back to good health, and the decision was made to release her at Salamonie Reservoir which was a perfect place for the young bird to grow and learn how to be a wild Bald Eagle.
