About This Item

Baldy Takes Off

My name is Baldy. I’m a Bald Eagle born at Starved Rock State Park in Illinois. While on my maiden flight I landed in my owner’s cache at the I & M Canal confluence with the Illinois River.
My clan stops in this area during the winter migration because the river rarely freezes. Someday I’d like to return after seeing the world.
Please keep me in my Ziploc so I may stay clean and dry and able to fly.

I rescued Baldy from the pack of flying monkeys! He's going to fly with us for a little while and see where he lands. Hopefully it will be a flying monkey-free enviroment!

Baldy flew with us for several weeks, always staying just a few lengths behind. Unfortunately, today we were in the land of Oz, when Elphaba and her flock of flying monkeys spied us, and began to give chase. We attempted to allude them but were unable to escape. We spotted the pond and remembering that water would melt Elphaba and assuming that flying monkeys can't swim we landed in the pond. Baldy was not quick enough to escape the clutches of the monkeys, so we had to leave Baldy in the Land of Oz. He is awaiting rescue.

Baldy found a flock of 7 geese to chase today. We will see if Baldy can keep up cause everyone knows that geese can fly farther than eagles because geese use teamwork. We will see how far Baldy will go before he is too tired to continue.

Since Eagles are starting to appear back here, dropped Baldy off here to soar with the other eagles.
