Hi all,
Was just on the phone with a gentleman in Cape Breton who experienced
something yesterday that few of us will ever see. To make a long story
short, he had 2 mature bald eagles locked together in his yard for HOURS!
From the story Im assuming they locked in the sky, fell, and then because
both of them were no doubt struggling they couldnt/wouldnt let go. Each were
wounded and the home owner tried to separate them..carefully...but I know
his presence probably made them just grip each other more tightly. Once they
separated, one flew off weakly and the other ran into the woods, i enquired
about wing injuries but difficult to tell. He will watch for them and let me
know if one is grounded.
Its funny, the veterinarian/rehabilitator side of me was
thinking.....wow....poor birds....are either of them hurt, and can I help?
The naturalist/bird geek side of me was thinking COOL!....so amazing to see
that and did you get a picture ( no he didnt..I asked)!
Will let you know if I hear more. I generally try not to interfere with
natural behaviours, but if one is injured I will certainly try to help.
:)
