 Herring Today, Gone... - LP Zoo

Ethan, the bald eagle, does do

A sighting of a herring fish

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.

And knows should be a snack delish.

He knows the keepers keep him well

Supplied with healthy food to eat.

So when there's fishy sight and smell,

Ethan's up for downing the treat.

It is Chicago winter, so

The herring fish is frozen cold.

But nonetheless Ethan's gung ho,

And his sharp beak takes a fish hold.

After some ripping and tearing,

Ethan chows down on the herring.
