On the afternoon of March 2, a Northampton County resident reported seeing a juvenile Bald Eagle on the beach, laying on its back and unable to right itself, in the Savage Neck Dunes State Natural Area Preserve. After being located and rescued by a local permitted rehabilitator, the bird was transported to veterinary clinic in Yorktown, where the veterinary team diagnosed a humeral fracture in the eagle’s right wing. They bandaged the eagle’s right wing, and a volunteer transported the eagle to the Wildlife Center the next day for further care.
