The one-winged eagle that soared again

Outlook

Available for over a year

John Stokes from Tennessee and Osceola , a one-winged eagle, have travelled across America taking part in educational shows. They even had a residency at Dolly Parton's theme park Dollywood. But there was just one sadness in their lives - Osceola's one wing meant he could never fly again. So John came up with an ingenious idea to solve the problem. John told Matthew Bannister how his love of birds began. Image: John Stokes and Osceola the Eagle
