This was a very cool installation on the Washburn campus - dogwood saplings

They came with no note and no identification except for his request, so we're guessing - until we can get online and research it - that these are the wings of an immature golden eagle, but I'm hoping we're wrong and that they are from a bald eagle.
got online...they ARE the wings of an immature bald eagle - this one is from 2008,
an approximately 2 year old bald eagle that got shocked by an electric line
So we're off to do errands and then, when they are totally defrosted, we'll fan them out and I'll take photos...are you as excited as I am? Oh and yes, touching them felt shiver inducing goose bumps holy - we both felt it [*gasp* did you feel that? Yeah!!]; we could feel the flight of the bird...it was a very wow experience and we're looking forward to more of that. How clever of my daughter to marry a Potowatomie...that I adore, and who likes me pretty well too.
Have an excellent day...I'm going to get my face sandblasted in a bonding moment with my daughter. I'd rather be playing with eagle wings...
leave the damn eagles alone
ReplyDeleteSadly, someone did not leave the eagle alone (where the wings came from). It was shot and killed by an unknown person. At least now its life is being honored. The other eagle was a rescue.
