Went to Kamloops to visit my mom-Aline. (Clint went to Glen's stag) Texting Kathryn, too. Well, she texted me on Friday that there was an injured eagle in Kenna Cartwright Park. So I went with her to try to capture it.
She had seen it on Thursday while walking her dog. It was still there Friday and she called the Wildlife Park to see what to do. They agreed that it was probably injured but had no one to send out to catch it. They told her to get a couple people and try to catch it herself using several towels n blankets and a dog crate to put it in. The wildlife park health centre woman said they were quite docile once their heads are covered. Ack! They are BIG.
Well, as the pix show ... We did manage to catch it. Me, Kathryn, and her son Evan. Wow. It was tricky. The damn thing could RUN even though it couldn't fly. It was holding one wing out kind of floppy.

They are going to email Kathryn the injury and prognosis. I think his wing is broken. I have a feeling he will need euthanasia.
Today my thigh muscles are killer sore. I had to walk so far in a crouch.
