Bald Eagle - Patriot - World Bird Sanctuary

In March 1995, Patriot’s parents used the same nest tree they had used for the past four years at Clarence Cannon Wildlife Refuge. A violent storm in mid-April brought the tree down. Refuge staff responded quickly; two of the chicks were already dead. The one surviving chick was in poor condition due to being in the water for at least an hour. She was treated for pneumonia, gained seven pounds in two weeks and regained her strength. Unfortunately because of the lung damage she sustained, Patriot would not have survived in the wild if returned there. Since she was deemed un-releasable, Patriot has a permanent home here at World Bird Sanctuary as an educational ambassador for her species.
