Meet one of our newest patients at the Alaska Raptor Center! This Bald Eagle was admitted after a fight with another eagle. During the examination, our staff discovered a brood patch, a featherless area that develops during nesting to help keep eggs warm.

Here at the Alaska Raptor Center, the Suzanne and Walter Scott Foundation Bald Eagle Flight Training Center provides a critical flight conditioning space for the Bald Eagles under our care, as well as offering outstanding opportunities for visitors to watch the birds regaining their flight abilities, without the birds ever seeing or hearing people.
