This is Liberty - an American bald eagle rescued by the Liberty Wildlife Rescue group in Phoenix, Arizona, and also named Liberty! She had a tough start in life; africanized bees attacked her and her nest mate before they were able to fly. Her brother died, but Liberty fell out of the nest, and while still injured she was able to survive. Now she is healthy, but because of her interactions with humans, she cannot be released back into the wild. So artists and photographers like me get the chance to see her up close!
