Independence Day: Symbol of freedom freed on July 4th When you think of America, it’s hard not to imagine a proud bald eagle soaring through the country’s “spacious skies.” But because it’s 2020, there’s no way we wouldn’t see an ironic twist on a national symbol. Over the holiday weekend, a bald eagle in an Alaskan national park became trapped in a tree after a piece of debris got stuck in her wing feathers. She had been pinned for quite a while, apparently, but plans to rescue the bird happened to coincide with a very special occasion: The Fourth of July. At 3 p.m. on July 4, a daring rescue was made to free the bird. Park rangers ascended the tree she was trapped in using special spiked shoes, and once she was out of her bind, great care was taken to ensure she made a full recovery. Now, the bird is truly free to soar around the park as she pleases. But please, no fireworks. She’s gone through enough already! Despite not being part of the contiguous U.S., Alaska seems to have plenty more bald eagles. Tap or click here to see the Alaskan town chock-full of America’s national bird. → |
