Baby Squirrel

Guess what? We rescued a baby squirrel on Thursday, March 8th. (He couldn't even open his eyes!) My dad picked it up and put it in a shoe box and we took him inside and warmed him up. My mom called the veterinarian to get tips of how to take care of it for a little. The next day we took him to the wildlife preserve and hopefully he'll live a long and happy life. Here's a short video of us giving him some water:

bald eagles, dedicated to a girl that told me to write about these animals



Bald eagles build their nests in large trees near rivers or coasts and the nest can grow to 9 feet and 2 tons! These flying animals eat fish, they don't normally eat chicken or the meat we do but they will take it if they have to. It will also feed on small water birds. Eagles and other birds fly south as the winter comes closer. These creatures use warm air currents to help them glide. The Bald Eagle is found from Alaska to Florida. That is only some facts about the bald eagle.
