This has been an outstanding 10 days. In earlier posts you saw that two golden eagles and one rough-legged hawk had been released back to the wild. Today another golden eagle, an immature named MISSY, took to the sky. I didn't have my camera so the photo accompanying this post was taken by Stacey Huston, photographer extrordinaire. She did a time lapse on this one, it's awesome. Go to her site, staceyhuston.com (see links) to see examples of her work. We drove this uniquely marked baby back to near where she had been hit by a vehicle and watched as she flew to the top of a tall hill to reconoiter. She then flew away out of our sight.
And it was a beautiful day for Missy to be free again.
