YOU'LL ENJOY THIS AMAZING BIRD! Read the narrative before viewing.
Music video featuring a special free-flying Bald Eagle named 'Challenger' (in honor of the lost space shuttle crew) cared for by the non-profit American Eagle Foundation(AEF).
He's a 'human-socialized' bird accidentally raised by the people who rescued him - after being blown from a wild Louisiana nest in a storm as a baby in the late 1980s. Declared 'non-releasable' by federal and state wildlife authorities, he was trained by the AEF to perform educational free-flight demonstrations at high profile public events.
He's the first Bald Eagle in U. S. History that learned to free-fly into stadiums, arenas and ballrooms during the singing of the Star Spangled Banner.. The celebrity eagle has appeared at numerous major sporting events like the World Series, Pro-Bowl, All-Star game, BCS National Championship, Fiesta Bowl, Men's Final Four, etc.
Challenger has also flown before 4 U. S. Presidents!
His life story is told in a children's storybook titled Challenger, America 's Favorite Eagle..'
