I will share our evening adventure in tomorrows blog. Lance, now a REGI part time employee, and I spent the early evening chasing down yet another Bald Eagle suffering from lead poisoning. I will be busy with the eagle tonight pulling out all the stops to help her live long enough for the lead chelating agent to start bringing down her lead levels. She is very ill and not even standing at this point. It will be a long night. I wish with every part of me that people that claim lead is so great, would share some time in the clinic with me.
But as for tonight please enjoy a few photos from recent days of Lance, Aprill, Natasha and Elizabeth hard at work.
