• Livestream on the White Belly Bald Eagle
This juvenile Bald Eagle arrived on July 26th after we were called by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. The eagle was near his nesting area but not flying, skinny, and having difficulties.
Upon initial examination, Martin noted that this was quite a rare "white belly" Bald Eagle. Usually, juvenile bald eagles are mostly brown, this one is unusually white. Because of poor nutrition however, the eagles feathers were in very bad shape. Though physically fine, the poor condition of the feathers made the bird unable to fly.
The juvenile Bald Eagle first got a big meal and plenty of nutrients. For the first couple days, Martin fed the bird to make sure he got enough nutrients. After only a few days, the eagle was able to feed himself. Martin then moved the eagle to the large chamber with a young rehabilitating Golden Eagle.
Most likely, this juvenile Bald Eagle will have to stay for a year or more until new feathers grow in properly. Such a long stay is also an expensive stay.

🔺 Our Mission 🔺
Founded in 1997 in Cedar City Utah, we are a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to wildlife rescue, rehabilitation and education.
🔹Rescue, Rehabilitate and Release 🔹
The Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah (SWF) cares for more than 100 sick, injured and orphaned native wildlife annually. Restoring them to health and returning them to the wild is our primary goal.
🔹 Informing, Educating and Inspiring 🔹
The SWF provides over 100 educational programs reaching over 30,000 people annually. We believe providing educational outreach programs to schools, scout groups and community events, with focus on children and families, will make the greatest impact in preserving our wildlife, the environment, our public lands and our resources for future generations to enjoy.
🔹 Martin Tyner 🔹
Since age twelve, with a bird on his arm, Martin has captivated audiences sharing his knowledge and experience of his wildlife friends.
At age nineteen, Martin was hired as curator of birds of prey at Busch Gardens, CA. He also worked in the movie and television industry training big cats, elephants, primates, sea mammals and raptors.
“One of my greatest childhood fantasies was the desire to create a personal friendship with a wild eagle. I found myself with a love and fascination for these powerful creatures.”
Martin Tyner is a federally licensed falconer, eagle falconer, wildlife rehabilitator, wildlife propagator, and wildlife and environmental educator.
He has been providing wildlife and environmental programs throughout the western United States, to schools, scouts and community groups for over fifty years.
“Grandpa believed in a very simple philosophy; that a person should get up every morning and do good. Doing good means that you do well for others and doing well means that you do good for yourself. There is nothing wrong with doing well, but Grandpa always believed in doing good.”
Martin's book, Healer of Angels, reflects back on his life: from a young boy terrified of birds to becoming the first man in North America licensed to train a wild golden eagle in th

When my daughter was little like 7 she was out on driveway. A juvenile swooped down at her. The parents were cackling loud. My daughter in her infinite young wisdom told me the mom and dad eagles were yelling at the kid eagle that he wasn't supposed to be eating kids. 😄

Haven't seen feathers in such bad shape for over 20 years ... So glad he came into care with your Sir ! Even if he is going to stay for a very long time, he will be given a second chance . Thank You so much for what you do with your lovely wife.

You are so sweet and gentle with these birds! Your wife is so special to help you with the Photography.

When the white bellied fella was eluding the net, that guthral hiss was every cuss word in eagle squawk directed at the net wielder.....who happens to be the greatest caregiver, teacher we have. Your kindness and efforts are infectious in a good way. PEACE

You and your wife are gems . God bless

What is sad for me is that you don't get any county state or government funding and you have to beg for funding 😓
-
I just have to say sir that if I lived in that state and was close by you I would be at your front door EVERY single day begging to learn from you and to volunteer in helping take care of these beautiful creatures 😄

WOW! I was raised by two AVID birders and have had the blessing of seeing, catching/releasing, nursing, and knowing sooo much about all types of wildlife. Yet, I've NEVER heard of a White-Bellied Bald Eagle! What a magnificent creature!!!

I ADORE how much he truly cares for these wild animals. ❤️ It warms my spirit and reminds me of how much the world could use more individuals like him. THESE are the qualities I hope to instill in my own children! ❤️🦅🪶🦅🪶🦅❤️

My friend Anna has a white-belly bald eagle hunting rabbits in her back-yard here in St. Louis. He's in great shape unlike that poor guy.

Lovely to see this good and dedicated man and wife team helping this animal

Could we get an "update" video on how "Scruff" is doing? Martin said he may be a resident for a year or 2.
