Great sea eagle was rescued in Västerås – here it is being cared for

This week, a large female sea eagle was found in the water by four German tourists at Tidö-Lindö outside Västerås, which VLT has also reported.

They fished her out with nets and a private person helped them contact Stockholm’s wild bird rehab in Åkersberga, a non-profit association that rescues injured birds.

X-rays showed no injuries and the protected bird of prey is not lead poisoned either. However, she has a head injury that is now allowed to heal. After food and training, the stately bird of prey will eventually be released back into the wild.

See in the clip how the large female sea eagle receives care.
