Bridport
Rough-legged Hawk
Buteo lagopus
Bridport was hit by a car in Bridport, VT in 2008, injuring her crop and fracturing her right elbow joint. After care at the VINS Center for Wild Bird Rehabilitation, her crop and fracture healed, but her elbow lost much of its range of motion, leaving Bridport with limited flight ability. Rough-legged Hawks soar over the arctic tundra where they breed in the summer, and then migrate south to Vermont in the winter. Bridport herself has a vibrant, energetic personality.
