Bald Eagles #17-1993 and #17-2469 update

The two Bald Eagles in flight pen A3 have been exercising regularly during the past couple of weeks; both birds are getting along and eating well. Wildlife rehabilitator Brie reports that eagle #17-1993 generally has poor lift and stamina; the bird is exercising about five to 10 passes during each session.

An additional eye examination on Bald Eagle #17-2469 confirmed that bird’s eye injuries should not affect the bird’s vision; the team decided to increase the eagle’s daily exercise regimen to five to 10 passes.
