VULTURES NEED YOUR LOVE, TOO!
If you can't visit us at our headquarters today for festivities, consider making a donation here: https://eagles.org/donate/
Today brings together two meaningful observances: International Vulture Awareness Day and International Day of Charity.
One celebrates some of the most misunderstood birds on the planet. The other reminds us of the power we have to make a difference.
And the two go hand in hand.
Vultures are essential to healthy ecosystems, cleaning up what nature leaves behind and helping limit the spread of disease. Yet despite their importance, many vulture species around the world face serious threats.

That’s where conservation (and your support) comes in.
Because even nature’s cleanup crew needs someone looking out for them.

HAPPY WORLD BEARD DAY!
Come see Poe and his magnificent beard, click here to plan your visit: https://eagles.org/visit/
It's World Beard Day, did you really think we weren't going to post our favorite bearded critter?
The hackles or throat feathers on a raven (often referred to as a "beard") serve many purposes primarily social communication, courtship, and dominance displays. Has Poe ever shown you his "beard"? Let us know in the comments!

CHALLENGER AT GAME FOUR OF THE 2001 WORLD SERIES
Some photographs capture a moment in history. Others capture the spirit of a nation.
In October 2001, Challenger took flight over Yankee Stadium as the World Series returned to New York following the events of September 11.
For American Eagle Foundation, moments like this became part of Challenger’s remarkable history, and part of the reason his story has meant so much to so many people.

Twenty-five years later, we continue to look back at the moments that made Challenger more than an ambassador for the bald eagle, but a symbol of the American spirit.

SO MUCH MORE...
To plan your visit to our headquarters in Kodak, Tennessee click here: https://eagles.org/visit/
At American Eagle Foundation, we have more than just bald and golden eagles!
Our organization is home to many different species of birds of prey.
And you don’t have to visit our headquarters in Kodak, Tennessee to meet some of our feathered residents. Our birds also take the stage at Wings of America at Dollywood, where you may have the opportunity to meet a species that you won’t find at our headquarters.
This is P**a, our Mississippi Kite! Mississippi Kites are graceful, highly maneuverable birds that spend much of their time on the wing, often catching insects in midair. Their long, pointed wings make them incredibly agile fliers, and their unique appearance makes them a fascinating member of the raptor family.

P**a is just one of the many incredible birds you can meet through AEF. Come discover the diversity of birds of prey for yourself!

SO MUCH GOES INTO KEEPING OUR BIRDS HEALTHY
To help in our mission of protection, consider making a donation here: https://eagles.org/donate/
These simple supplies may not seem like much, but when it comes to keeping over 70 birds of prey healthy this is just the tip of the iceberg. From simple items like cotton swabs to vaccinations and medications these costs tend to really add up. You can help by making a donation and in the same turn keeping our AMAZING ambassadors
healthy and happy (well, maybe not happy by the looks of Sundance)
