DCNR rescuers knew they’d need a bird expert to ensure everything went smoothly, so they called Maryann, a capture transport wildlife volunteer, for backup.
Surveying the feathers, Maryann realized the truth — there were two eagles, not just one.

Great story, glad they survived
I’da left the eagles alone, they were probably just trying to get the rock to their nest.
Let the eagles do what they want to do I say.
It didn’t say how they got themselves stuck there
We need more stories like this!
Good positive story. Best part was that a mated pair survived together.
