On Tuesday, April 11, 2017, OSP received a report from Hood River resident Jeff Wallace of an injured Bald Eagle on Post Canyon Road just outside of Hood River. Mr. Wallace was coming down Post Canyon on a dirt bike when he encountered the large eagle sitting on the side of the road. Mr. Wallace said the eagle was unable to fly so he reported it to OSP and left an identifying marker on the road nearby. Numerous other reports were made regarding the eagle, indicating it was flying very low and appeared unsteady in flight before it crashed into a small creek. OSP and ODFW arrived and located the injured eagle approximately 45 minutes after the report from Mr. Wallace. The eagle was transported by ODFW to the Rowena Wildlife Clinic for treatment. The clinic reports the eagle does not have any obvious injuries and is conscious and alert. The clinic is working to determine the cause of the eagle’s illness and has taken blood samples for analysis. They will also be taking x-rays to determine if there are any spinal injuries or other fractures.
