Small Young Golden Eagle Injured Near Highway
A young small male Golden Eagle was found near a highway. Martin examined the eagle and diagnosed he was most likely affected by a concussion. After some time at the rehab center, this young eagle made a full recovery.
Two Squirrels Released Back to the Wild
Susan and Martin cared for two young squirrels that needed a little help. Both squirrels recovered and have been released back to the wild where they belong.
Shoes For Eagles
Martin discusses his occasional use of “Eagle Shoes”. Though not too often, over the years, when an eagle’s feet are not working properly, he gives custom made “shoes” a try to hold the feet in a more natural position and assist with healing.
Time With Kate the Peregrine Falcon
An update on how Kate the Peregrine Falcon is doing. Martin is spending a lot of time with her and it will still be quite some time before he knows her future — she may stay, she may go – it all depends on her. Either way, Martin will continue to evaluate what is best for her future.
To learn more about Kate, you can check out her playlist here.
Peregrine Falcon Kate | Day 2
Peregrine Falcon Kate arrived in mid-March. She is the older sister of Helen the Peregrine Falcon. Kate is 6 years old and for the most part, even though from a breeder, very wild. Her history is not completely known, and Martin will be spending a lot of time to get to know her.
This video, even over 45 minutes long, contains only a fraction of the time Martin spent during her first full day with him.
For all the videos about Kate, you can visit her YouTube Playlist here.
The Peregrine Family
Back on march 4th, Martin got word that a local breeder may need help caring for his birds. This was the same breeder where Helen the Peregrine Falcon came from.
On March 13th, Martin scooped up three Peregrine Falcons. Two were a breeder pair, and one was a younger female.
All were settled into chambers at our rescue center as more details were learned and homes were sought out.
Martin learned later that the original owner of the pair would care for them again. So he arranged to transport them to a new home.
Martin also learned that the other female was actually Helen’s Big Sister. Her future is still uncertain, but she will be under Martin’s care as long as needed.
Much more about Helen’s Big Sis coming up!

Golden Eagle With Injured Talons Recovers
Susan and Martin were called out about a Golden Eagle on the ground. Martin captured the eagle and noticed some minor problems with the eagle’s talons. After just a couple weeks of rest and lots of food, the eagle was fully recovered. Quickly healthy, this eagle moved around a lot in the chamber and Martin feared the eagle may injure himself. The eagle had to be returned to the wild as soon as possible, so we were not able to get video of the release.
