How fantastic, amazing, beautiful, special and etc...... This is well worth a few minutes of your time to view it.  
Watch the Eagle
 Challenger is his name, in honor of the lost space shuttle crew. He is cared for by the nonprofit American Eagle Foundation (AEF). He is a "human-socialized" bird accidentally raised by the people who rescued him after being blown from a wild Louisiana nest after a storm in the late 1980's. He was trained by the AEF to perform educational free-flight demonstrations at high profile public events. Declared 'non-releasable' by federal authorities, he's the first Bald Eagle in U.S. History that learned to free-fly into Stadiums, arenas and ballrooms during the singing of the Star Spangled Banner. The   celebrity eagle has appeared at numerous major sporting events like the World Series, Pro-Bowl, All-Star game, BCS National Championship, Fiesta Bowl, Men's Final Four, etc., and performed before four Presidents. Notice the special Presidential salute to him in the film.
