Sofroniou, A: Hatched Free

Psychotherapist Donald Fortescue got more than he bargained when he decided to raise the orphaned golden eagle chick. Having rescued her from the hillside crack near his Wiltshire farm, he reluctantly found himself playing parent to the little eagle, which was always hungry and who was soon not so little anymore. Yet, before he knew it, the eaglet he named Chryso had won his heart.
However, could she ever learn to fly free with others of her kind and hunt for her own survival?
Kept in a corrugated box, fed with a pipette, the baby eagle soon grew to be a huge and beautiful bird. Nevertheless, without parents to teach her, how would Chryso learn to fly and to hunt? Having been raised by a human, could she ever survive in the wild on her own?
In this account Donald Fortescue and his fine-feathered friend Chryso, set out to find the answers.
