I just thought I'd take some time out from the madness of the rehabilitation side of my work. This is a shot of Jefferson, our resident Golden Eagle. He is retired from being handled on the glove so he must find other ways of occupying his time. As I drove into work one day, I noticed a lot of the hedges were trimmed along the side of the parking lot. My co-worker Sonia collected them up and made an offering to him. It didn't take long until he was happily plucking, or rather destroying the branches. We are not really sure if he is performing some type of nesting behavior or simply venting some hormonal frustration. It is after all, the beginning of the nesting season down here.
