Happy to announce this morning at 7:24am, a healed Ozzie was successfully released back into the wild thanks to the great staff at CROW - Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife, Inc..
A very happy and emotional day for all! We will work to provide updates as we get them on Ozzie's activity and hopeful reunion with Harriet.

Reports from today are that nobody has seen Ozzie since he was photographed on a pole shortly after his release. Harriet has been seen today with her new beau..he's been with her for quite a while now.

Harriet takes a bath at yonder pond. During her bath, an osprey swoops down at her and Harriet protests. Then an occupied "mud buggy" appears driving through the heavy brush in Harriet's direction. Eagles taking baths are completely vulnerable because they cannot fly away. That is one reason we see them looking all around before, during and after a bath. And yes, the actions of the vehicle owner have been reported to the property owners. Thank you Dick Pritchett Real Estate for maintaining such a suitable tree and environment for our Bald Eagle Family

SWFL (Video: wskrsnwings): "FV made a second attempt at mating this am. If he was deterred by her size previously, he did a great job overcoming that this morning. Remember that mating is a form of bonding when performed out of the fertile time. FV misjudged the position, but he is young, as O&H were once too. Great start for a young FV! "Bald eagles mate by touching or pressing cloaca together - the famous 'cloacal kiss'. The female perches and tilts forward, allowing the male to land with his feet lodged on her back. She twists and moves her tail feathers to one side so the mounted male can press and twist his cloacal opening around her cloaca, passing sperm from his cloaca to hers. Intense and rapid vocalizations will precede and accompany their mating." (Credit: Raptor Resource Project Blog) No sighting of Ozzie this AM. Be safe and we wait to see you return strong, Ozzie."
