Thank you!
This is a rescue bird. It had been shot in the shoulder, and the rangers had to put a pin in it. After some more recuperating time, it will be released back into the wild.

Beautiful! Please can you let us know where you saw this captive bird & if there is a story here - for example is this a rescue bird?
You might also like to add this to the North American Raptors mission.
