The face of an eagle looks regal and, let’s be honest, kind of angry! Bald Eagles have a thick ridge, called the supraorbital ridge, over their eyes that helps them see during times of bright sunlight, and gives them an "angry" or "fierce" look! #DidYouKnow #supraorbitalridge #funfacts

A rare visitor at the Alaska Raptor Center! Ospreys aren’t common in Southeast Alaska, but after last week’s high winds, one found its way to us. After a quick check-up to make sure everything looked good, this impressive raptor was released back into the wild! #Osprey #Rare #FreedomFriday

Did you know wild raptors sometimes arrive carrying tiny hitchhikers like lice and mites? These pests can sap a bird’s strength and spread disease. During our intake exams we give our patients a gentle, bird-safe treatment to clear out the freeloaders. #BehindTheScenesCare #WildlifeRehab #DidYouKnow

What’s on the menu for a Bald Eagle? 🍽️ Fish makes up 80% of a Bald Eagle’s diet, both in the wild and here at the Alaska Raptor Center! But these birds are opportunistic eaters, also dining on birds, small mammals, and carrion. #WhatsForDinner #BaldEagle #WildlifeDiet #FeedingTime

This was a reply to a post. It seems benign to me. Nevertheless it caused Herr Dr. Professor Michael E. Mann to report me and attempt to have me banned for using „abusive language.” Yes, he is such a model Liberal defender of the 1st amendment.
