Sorry your world is in chaos, Hockey.
.


Are you familiar with the world-famous Decorah (Iowa, USA) Bald Eagles? I live just south of them. Last summer I drove up to see them IRL. Their world was in chaos, too. A day or so before I drove up, one newly-fledged baby was electrocuted and killed, and another had earlier broken a wing and was in rehab.

Here's a photo I took of the one free-flying young BE. She had claimed that mulch pile as her substitute nest for weeks. You'll notice she's wearing a transmitter. This month she spent a lot of time just south of me, according to her map. (

) My boyfriend and I went looking for her last week. We probably drove right past her but never saw her.
