Story of the Eagle
The story of our elegant eagle.
The eagle has the longest life-span of its' species
It can live up to 70 years . . .
But to reach this age, the eagle must make a hard decision --In its' 40's.
It's long and flexible talons can no longer grab and hold onto it's prey which serves as their food supply
It's long and sharp beak becomes bent.
It's old-aged and heavy wings, due to their thick feathers, become stuck to it's chest and make it difficult to fly.
Then, the eagle is left with only two options: die or go through a painful process of change which lasts 150 days.
The process requires that the eagle fly to a mountain top and sit on it's nest
There the eagle knocks it's beak against a rock until it plucks it out!
After plucking it out, the eagle will wait for a new beak to grow back and then it will pluck out it's talons!
When new talons grow back, the eagle starts plucking it's old-aged feathers!
And after five months, the eagle takes its famous flight of rebirth and lives for 30 more years!
