We fell in love with the Bald Eagle family on Gabriola Island off the coast of British Columba who adopted the Red-tail Hawk into their family instead of having it for dinner. Sadly, news has come today that the juvenile eaglet on the nest, Junior, was electrocuted. This is tragic news.
We have lost many of our feathered friends from these power poles. When will be able to say that we did well for our birds by making every power pole safe? Their lives are challenging enough. Ask your electric company what they are doing to protect our raptors!
My condolences go out to our Eagle family, to Malala who will miss her bestie, and to everyone at GROWLS.
