National Save the Eagles Day!
May you soar on eagle wings, high above the madness of the world.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Have you ever seen one? Where did you see it?

We used to see one every day close to home on our way to the city when a new highway was built several years ago. After the highway was completed more of the wild habitat was destroyed to built a shopping plaza. We haven’t seen the eagle for quite sometime now.

When I used to work at the airport in Maine, almost every morning around 5:30am we would see one fly over the bay right next to the airport. Several of us would grab a cup of coffee and go sit out on the ramp and wait for him. It was a beautiful sight!

Yes I have seen many eagles! Love them! We also have bird refuges here and Tracy Aviary and our local zoo all have programs with them. While we were in Oregon a few years ago we saw an outdoor program in the woods. It was amazing!

I’ve seen a couple. Our zoo has one. The eagle has been injured and will not be able to be rehabilitated to live on his/her own so the eagle has a pretty neat enclosure; no bars, no top, trees, etc.
