Pawgwashiing Migizi (Pawgwa)

Pawgwashiing Migizi (Pawgwa)

This Bald Eagle's name is Pawgwashiing Migizi, or Pawgwa for short. The name is Ojibway for "Bald Eagle of the Shallow Waters."

She was found as a 4-month-old bird wandering on a beach near Thunder Bay. X-rays revealed broken and poorly healed bones in her left wing – she had likely fallen from the nest.

Unfortunately, the damage turned out to be permanent and she's not able to fly.
