This guy is the 14th Eagle we've recieved at the clinic this year. He came to us from Kenai after a citizen called him into Bird TLC and we contacted U.S. Fish and Wildlife in the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge. He's an older bird. We are unsure how he got his injuries. Cindy and I examined him at Bird TLC last night. What we could find without xrays was a fractured right radius and bruised right ulna. He aslo has heavy bruising around the left humerus. We wrapped the right wing to
stabilize the break. On Thursday Cindy will take him in for xrays.He was a hungry fellow also. In the picture he wouldn't even look up to smile. He was too busy chowing down.
