Miller wrapped the bird's wings and talons in his shirt while he waited for state troopers and bird rescue.
Since taking in the eagle, Tri-State Bird Rescue & Research, Inc. in Newark, Delaware said they have received many inquiries from concerned citizens.
On Wednesday, they shared an update on the bald eagle's condition:
"The adult female is resting comfortably after having a wing injury sutured under anesthesia by our wildlife veterinarian. Her abrasions have been cleaned, and she is self-feeding. Her recovery is being closely monitored by our professional staff and volunteers."
