Also it was noted that:"Initial testing has allowed us to rule out several potential causes, including lead toxicosis and the presence of foreign items such as fishing hooks, lines, and weights. Her kidney inflammation appears to have improved."

I just received an update from Ojai Raptor Center. To summarize, Jackie received a life-saving transfusion thanks to CALM Zoo in Bakersfield.
They also report that "The patient's condition remains critical, and she continues to receive intensive care in our urgent care unit. A treatment plan has been developed to ensure we are covering all bases while we work to determine the cause of anemia. She is eating well, perching, and remains bright and strong."

I think you can see at least the grocery bandits on youtube?

it was at a semi-theme amusement park called Old Town, Kissimmee. if constant old noisy roller coasters full of screaming people every few minutes below you don't affect your choice of nesting, nothing will

Mountainart, I would totally pay to watch the rollercoaster eagles grabbing food from carnival goers, or eagles snagging grocery bags.
By the way, what do you call a rollercoaster eagle? A Carney-vore? Ba-dum tsss. 🙃

I'm glad to see that some folks are willing and able to see more than one perspective when discussing eagle habitat. PolarOrbit, you are right, there is always a lot going on around that SWFL nest.

My nephew in Alaska says that up there, bald eagles are like seagulls: huge flocks hanging around the docks. I suppose the allure here is due to their comparative rarity this far south - and in a desert mountain range, no less. Hearty birds they are!
