Wow! Loon photo is SO gorgeous.
"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks
The young eagle Phoenix (as she's dubbed by the Hornby nest discussion group) is lethargic and panting. According to what I've read in the discussion group, Doug Carrick is working with a rehabber to get her out of the nest and examined. If she's determined to be okay, she will be returned to the nest.
She is due to fledge very soon. I hope she's okay.
