Two brothers rescued a bald eagle – and then took a pretty awesome picture.

When brothers Michael and Neil Fletcher went into the woods last Tuesday in Ontario, Canada, they were looking for a few grouse to shoot... but instead they found an eagle to save!

The two brothers briefly considered calling the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry but felt it was more important to free the bird right away, and then contact the ministry and inform them of what they'd done.
