Bald Eagles

In Ketchikan Alaska we went on a rain forest hike and at the end of the hike we saw this Bald Eagle. It's a rescue bird and It's injuries are such that it will never be able to returned to the wild. It has lived in captivity for about 20 years and is very accustomed to the handlers feeding it. This handler put a few small pieces of raw salmon on her fingers and the eagle quickly ate it and then was licking her fingers.




The following pictures were taken on the hike.  The hike finished at a stream and that's where saw a black bear catch a salmon.
