Patriotic slide.....
I’m in a closed group on FB, watching a bald eagle nest in Avon Lake, Ohio. Each year, the parents, named Stars and Stripes, raise a new batch of eaglets, and the kids in the nearby elementary school get to name the eaglets.
This year, they named them “Glory” and “Freedom”. Well, 2 days ago, a barred owl knocked Freedom out of the nest, and he eventually ended up on the ground by late morning. Everybody was worried about the loss of Freedom.
Yesterday evening, Freedom (both eaglets had just started “branching”, basically learning to fly to branches and back) found his way back to the nest tree but not to the nest. This morning, near sun-up, he made it back to the nest, and commenced to eating.
So, in short, FREEDOM is Back!
Re Freedom is back:
Great story!
