Today's update from CROW: Today, Lil Guy received a second radiograph (x-ray) since the eaglets operation on Saturday, May 14. His condition was upgraded to guarded based on blood work and clinical condition but protein levels are still dangerously low. The fracture site and pin placement from the surgery look good and today he was able to stand and walk normally but still spends a majority of time down and sleeping. The eaglet is responding to intensive care and is moving from a predominately liquid diet to a soft solids diet. ( Yes, Jesse I will save you from hearing todays menu LOL). Body weight has increased but he still remains extremely thin. He was at 6.4 lbs on admission. He should be at 8. Although Lil Guy still has a lengthy recovery, it was encouraging that the eaglet was willing to bear weight on its leg and use its foot and claw in a normal fashion which indicates normal nerve function. |

Taking Brandy back to the vet tomorrow. She has gotten better but the stroke has really slowed her down on some days. I guess as we all get older we have good days and bad days?????

Little Guy continues to show signs of improvement. This morning the eaglet was bright and alert during surgical wound care cleaning and blood work. He ate some fish fillets on his own yesterday and weighs approximately 8.5 pounds. The eaglet was fully standing this morning and vocalizing after treatment. He remains in guarded condition. We will have another update on Wednesday. Fish - his favorite. Vocalizing - his specialty and his way of saying more food!

Todays update from CROW: Lil Guy's condition has been upgraded to fair. He is now routinely standing and using the right injured leg, but still won’t perch and spends a lot of time lying down. He is bright and alert and eating a diet of semi-soft fish fillets and meat. The eaglet requires assistance during feedings but has been slowly eating on its own. Blood work abnormalities have resolved and are back to normal. ----------------- The not wanting to perch yet is understandable to me. He had and internal fixation of his broken bone, plus has external hardware on the leg to hold everything in place. The thought of perching, to me, sounds like major "ouchie" time. The "spends a lot of time laying down" made me chuckle. With the exception of learning to fight for meals, he was always a bit of a slug. Between the malnutrition and being the younger sibling, he was not a great initiator. He was slow to perch and to fledge. And, he loved his down time in the nest bed. Glad the dangerously low protein has resolved. This is one tough lil bugger. |

Todays update from CROW: Lil Guy continues to be bright, alert, responsive and using the right leg in a normal fashion. The eaglet is being fed whole prey items and still requires assistance with eating. He continues to gain weight. The next update will be this Tuesday when he is scheduled for xrays and blood work. ------------------ On a brighter note, Lil Guy's older sibling Brutus is now a free and independent juvenile eagle gracing the skies in parts unknown! The parents have been spending time in the nest tree daily since Brutus left. The nest itself is totally gone. It is unknown if they will try and rebuild there or find another spot for the next season. ----------------- For all that has happened at this nest and with Lil Guy, other eagles have not fared as well this nesting season. The 3 non releasable breeding couples in Tenn laid a combined 9 eggs, none of which were viable. The Decorah, Iowa nest continues to have problems. One of their 3 eaglets died 2 weeks ago. That was attributed to being the youngest sibling and the last fed in an area where food was apparently scarce. Wednesday, another eaglet and the mother were both experiencing obvious distress. Mom was staggering around the nest, falling down with wings spread. They think, this was the result of contaminated food. Pesticides and poisons ingested by their prey affects them as well. Mom recovered within a few hours. The eaglet did not survive. The remaining eaglet wasnt affected. Considering how slowly the government usually moves, it took just 2 hours for local wildlife people and the feds to do all the paperwork to intervene in this situation. They needed to remove the dead eaglet and any remaining food from the nest asap to protect the safety of the parents and the remaining sibling. |

It occurred to me the other day that the vast majority of residents at facilities I've worked at are white. You don't very often see Asian or Latinos...and in an area where there are numerous Native Americans, they also account for 0% of our clientele.
This speaks volumes to me about cultures and how (or if) they truly value their elders. Just my .02

I had a really hard weekend with my son... and thats on my mind. He is not getting any better right now... and I know his doctors say that the changes we have made are contributing to that and to have patience while he adjusts... but its so hard... so many tears.
I am also so glad I had today for myself. It was a wonderful day and it made me giddy.

Today's update from CROW: Lil Guy continues to improve since having surgery on May 14 to repair a broken femur in the right leg. The eaglet is perching, vocalizing and gaining strength. Over the weekend he ate a little on his own but still requires some assistance during feeding. Blood work came back normal. This week the eaglet is expected to be moved to an outside enclosure where it will have more room to build its strength and spread its wings. ------- This is super news! |
