Rudy Rudy “B.E.”
Rudy “B.E.” (“That’s for Bald Eagle!” he’ll tell you), is a majestic bald eagle who embodies the spirit of America. As he says himself, he’s "the original Yankee Doodle Dandy"-- as old as the USA and as wise as the founding fathers. But he’s more than just an American icon. Rudy is also a fun-loving, energetic tour-guide who enjoys nothing more than sharing his love of America with children across the country.
Sometimes bumbling, occasionally over-the-top, but always smiling, Rudy’s innocent sense of humor and positive, "can-do" attitude charms everyone he meets. As both a symbol of freedom and a kind, loveable father-figure, Rudy embodies all that makes America great.
