The tragic storms that claimed dozens of lives in Missouri last Friday night just claimed another. The Missouri eagle famous for adopting a rock was found deceased after the storms passed.
I would argue this is the most popular eagle in Missouri if not America right now. He's the eagle who treated a rock like his baby and now he has become a really great stepdad - for real.
There's a bird in Missouri who's gonna make a great dad someday. He's an eagle named Murphy who has been spotted protecting a rock that he thinks is an egg and there's video to prove it.
