I believe any bird of prey is covered by either state or federal law.

Thats what i was thinking too, but hate to give out bad info

Few years ago there was an eagle or hawk around here that had been shot, and the Department of Fish and Game was offering a $10k  reward.

But you can buy it from breeders, isn't it? I know that Falconry is a big thing in the US. In Israel almos ALL the birds are protected by law.

You must have a permit for Falconry and only certain species of birds may be used.

Morning Chaos!

That boy have a chance yet to enjoy the play set you got him?

Yes he has! He loves the doorbell! I ordered him a sandbox that should be here next week in time for his actual birthday.I need to run to the store and load up on toys for using in it yet. His Momma is in her last stages of fighting stage 4 Hodgkins Lymphoma.She is clear of it now thank God! She will be in the hospital the week of his birthday so his party was this past weekend. Her stem cells will be put in next week. So I hope to build more of a play area for him this summer.

The hiker agreed to wait at the park and watch over the eagle until Aiken arrived.
The hiker guided Aiken about a mile through a steep area at the northern end of the preserve.
"By time I got to her, gosh, she had flown away," he said.
When Aiken saw Sequoia circling at a nearby canyon, he blew his whistle and she came back to him.
It was "thrilling" to have Sequoia return to the zoo, he said.
Sequoia has been part of the museum and zoo for four years and previously resided at the San Francisco Zoo, Aiken said.
Sequoia was found shot in Humboldt County in 1988 when she was 4 months old and was stabilized, but her injury stopped her from getting released into the wild, he said.
A bullet had struck one of her toes and lead scattered to her pelvis, according to Aiken.
She was left with a paralyzed tail, which prevents her from catching prey from mid-air, he said.
Sequoia was taken to the San Francisco Zoo after she was treated for her injury and Aiken became one of the first people to train her. When the zoo closed its eagle program, she was transferred to the Palo Alto Junior
Museum and Zoo, Aiken said.
Sequoia is owned by the federal government and was deemed an educational ambassador, according to Aiken.
Her departure this week was "first runner up" on the list of times Sequoia has strayed away, Aiken said.
About 10 years ago, she left San Francisco Zoo and was found a week later in Santa Cruz, Aiken said.
Sequoia has ventured off by herself but always managed to find her way back, he said.
"She's getting older and when she's out we're getting a bit more concerned whether she can keep up with other wild eagles," Aiken said.
Aiken said he and a fellow zoo employee plan on looking into better technology that can help them locate Sequoia more quickly.
