The crow looks good and it is wonderful that you are a bird rescuer -- best wishes on becoming a veterinarian -- you look to be well on your way!

oooh, Sofija, what a wonderful young woman you are! I have met - online - two women who started the same as you. When they were 13-14 years old, they rescued and healed injured birds. Neither one became a vet, but both became rehabilitators (rehabbers). One rescues a lot of bald eagles and other birds of prey. Both women inspire me every day, and you do too!

Here is the website of one of the women, Marge: http://www.raptoreducationgroup.org/

Here is a picture of Marge holding a young female bald eagle that she rescued last week (I hope this link works!)

Wow - the size of that eagle, bociany. Marge is obviously a very skilled person to be able to handle birds of that size.
I notice the firm grip on those amazing feet!

I know those eagles are big birds but to see one in the arms of a person gives a good
idea of the size.

[alice44]

And doesn't that bird look cross and full of life!

[ergee]

Yes, and the woman looks resolute and willing to help!

"I wish Spot also was somewhere nearby..." (Asteria)

Is it known now if Spot is he or she?

S/he could be where Tõnn is, but Africa (S. Africa, Namibia, Zambia ...) seems more likely. But on Eagle Club's pages it is said that South Europe is a possibility.
Migrating LSEs from Slovakia and Germany (Meyburg; 10 birds altogether with trackers) have been radiotracked. Here is an article on 7 (?) German LSEs from 1994 http://home.scarlet.be/~pin02658/ApomarinaE2.doc.pdf, more articles listed here; 3 birds seem to have been lost, the others all went quite far south in Africa.

[oliv]

It looks as we have to wait to the springtime and see if Spot lays eggs. I can´t hardly wait. Do anyone know if eagles return to de area where they are born?

[asteria]

Even if Spot is a female, she is too young to lay eggs this spring.
