A bald eagle pulled from the icy Hudson River last month is showing signs of improvement, according to The Raptor Trust.

The injured eagle was rescued Feb. 17 from the Hudson River by the NYPD’s Harbor Unit. Officers saw the bird floating on the ice while on patrol just north of the George Washington Bridge, heard it calling out and moved in to help.​

The eagle was taken to The Raptor Trust, a nonprofit bird rehabilitation facility in Millington, New Jersey. According to Chris Soucy of The Raptor Trust, the eagle is a 21-year-old male that was banded as a juvenile, which allowed caretakers to determine its age.

As of last week, The Raptor Trust said there have been some positive changes to the eagle's health.

“Follow-up blood work on our NY bald eagle has shown that the very elevated liver numbers we saw last week have come down considerably. The eagle is more alert, eating on its own, keeping food down (it wasn’t when it first arrived), gaining strength and has been moved out of critical care to a larger outdoor enclosure,” The Raptor Trust said in a Facebook post.

The organization said the bird's white blood cell count is still high and tests revealed the possibility of some type of poisoning or infection, and as the bird continues to get stronger, volunteers will perform additional testing.

“For now, we are cautiously optimistic that we have seen some improvement,” the post said.

The Raptor Trust is still waiting for results from some recent lab tests.
