This column is being written on Valentine’s Day and yes, it concerns Valentine’s Day (sort of) but you probably won’t be reading it until at least a week after Valentine’s Day.
And yes, it is a column about two “love birds” but they are not human love birds; these love-birds, as it turns out, are two golden eagles.
Golden eagles, if you didn’t know it, mate for life.
Several years ago, I wrote a column about Athena and Harper, a “mated” pair of golden eagles who had been fitted with tracking devices while spending the winter at the Bernheim Arboretum and Research Center, located near Fort Knox, Kentucky.
