Please enjoy this picture story of a Bald Eagle rescue we did in 2020. We were notified by photographer Annie of an eaglet that had impaled its wing on a branch and was stuck in the top of the nest tree. Janie and Don with Birds of Prey Northwest were called to assist once we had the eaglet safely on the ground. Michael and Matt were our climbers, while Austin was the groundperson. It was a complex rescue due to the nest tree hanging out over the Kootenai River, so I called my friend and boat captain, Genny, to assist with a jet boat so the eaglet could be safely lowered down to me on the boat. Thanks to all for a successful rescue
