In the summer of 2020, a rescued and unwell juvenile Bald eagle was transported to Green Chimneys so that it could spend time rehabilitating in our flight cage. Per standard protocol, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service were notified that the Bald eagle was under our care. With help from our expert team at the Paul C. Kupchok Wildlife Center, the juvenile eagle had minimal human interaction while regaining its strength with plenty of food and exercise. It was determined early on that the eagle's best chance at survival meant returning it to the wild as soon as it was able. After a few weeks, the juvenile Bald eagle was ready. It was time for him to take flight.
