<::: Supermom raising eaglet on her own :EGSM:

She's a supermom, defying the odds.

Bald eagles typically raise their young together, with parents taking turns foraging for food and protecting the next.

But, this female is raising her offspring all on her own.

The male disappeared a few days after the nestling hatched.

Volunteers watching over the nest saw what was happening.

Arizona Game and Fish put out extra food but she hardly touched it, instead relying more on the trout stocked in the Salt River over the winter.

"We've been keeping a close eye on this nest and we're excited that all of our management efforts are paying off," says Kenneth Jacobson, bald eagle management coordinator for Game and Fish.

"We have never documented a single adult bald eagle successfully raise their young from such an early age. This female is deserving of the title "Supermom."

And now the baby eagle has passed a milestone - taking its first flight.

Last year 53 eaglets survived to take their first flight.

Game and Fish is hoping to beat that record this year!

Thanks for sharing the story of Supermom, Penny. That is amazing. It probably helped that AZ is such a warm state, so she didn't have to brood so much to keep the chick warm.
