    Three large raptors, likely juvenile eagles (possibly White-tailed Eagles or Golden Eagles), are housed in an enclosure with metal bar fencing. They are resting on a bed of straw/hay inside what appears to be a rehabilitation or captive breeding facility. One bird on the left shows visible red coloration on its chest, possibly indicating an injury or blood.

    Three young American Bald Eagles stand in their cage on a hacking tower at Dale Hollow Lake in Allons, Tenn., Aug. 22, 1988. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nashville District conducted an Eagle Restoration Program between 1987 and 1991 in the hopes that when they took flight for the first time they would return four to five years later when sexually mature to reproduce and nest all year long.
