Young bald eagle soars again following rescue

Twelve-year-old Ryder Craemer was showing a friend his mountain bike when, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed what he thought was a baby turkey in his yard. Ryder went and got his dad, Jack, who also thought it was a turkey. It was soon discovered, however, it was actually an adolescent bald eagle that had fallen out of a nearby nest.
