Hand-feeding a Sharp-shinned Hawk

In this video, a sharp-shinned hawk is hand-fed by Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS; Quechee, VT) staff members Kasey Hopkins (left) and Sara Eisenhauer. The sharpie is suffering from head trauma and blindness in its left eye, and is currently not eating on his own.
