My heart breaks

Just got word that our Bird TLC family lost one of its dearest members. Hal, an education eagle that had been with us for thirty years, passed away on Sunday morning after thrilling people at our Bird TLC auction just the night before.

Hal was one of our most capable and entrancing ed eagles. His initial injuries as a very young bird precluded his release back to the wild. So he spent his life as an ambassador to our world from his. He was one helluva an ambassador too. When his eyes focused on you, it was as if he was piercing your soul with the look and discovering all its secrets.

Go to www.birdtlc.org for more info on Hal and all our other ed birds and how you can help us keep the doors open for injured wild birds.
