Name TRC's Newest Education Bald Eagle!

Please suggest a name for our newest Education staff member!
This bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is three years old. He has a shoulder injury that prevents him from flying very well and therefore cannot be released. He will be a part of The Raptor Center's winged ambassadors team, educating thousands of people each year. Bald eagles do not get their white heads and tails until they are around five years old. He weighs approximately eight pounds.

Please go to our website, www.TheRaptorCenter.org, and suggest a name for him! (Photo credit Jeff Fischer).
