Jean Keene

Jean Keene (October 20, 1923 – January 13, 2009), also known as the Eagle Lady, was a former rodeo trick rider who became the subject of national attention due to her feeding of wild bald eagles on the Homer Spit in Homer, Alaska.

Although she had many supporters for the feedings, she was also criticized for drawing a large population of eagles to the area.

After her death, the city of Homer passed a law prohibiting the feeding of predatory birds.
