A flightless bald eagle who resorted to incubating a rock has been given the most heartwarming gift: an eaglet to take care of.

Murphy, who lives at the World Bird Sanctuary in Missouri, took to nursing the rock in the giant enclosure he shared with five other bald eagles back in March. After constructing a pretend nest, the 31-year-old bird proceeded to nurture a rock as an egg.
