After realising the bird was injured, she made the decision to wrap it in her hoodie, before making the hour long drive home.Tracey from Stornoway, was travelling through Urgha, near Harris, on Sunday when she spotted it."I took a picture because I'd never seen one up close like that.
"I thought something wasn't right, so I followed him a little. I took off my hoodie and he stopped and allowed me to wrap him up in the hoodie and take him to the car."He was just looking at me. He looked like he needed help, so I knew I had to try and do something."All the time he never tried to attack me or do anything. He just sat wrapped up.Top news stories today "The eagle was very interested in the cats, especially the wee black one. I saw him looking at it.
"I went to the police station and called the vet - I took him to the vet and that was the last time I saw him unfortunately."Tracey is unsure whether the bird passed of natural causes or was euthanised, but says the eagle was seriously underweight. "I checked on him every day, but he sadly passed. I don't know whether he was euthanised or if he was just too far gone," she said."It really was an incredible experience that I'll never have again.
