This is the release site. It consists of a wooden structure in which two cages are placed. The birds were put here for several days upon arrival from Boise, Idaho. After getting used to the climate and surroundings they were let go. The Peregrine Fund is expected to release another harpy during the month of April. In the back you can see the huge branch which almost fell on top of the cages. Shane and Angel are in the front.
