[caitlmac1]

@nickmartone1986 I have a cheap little sony video camera and the zoom isn't very good at all, I need a new camera!

Wow. I played this outside on my stereo. Dogs and cats must have an innate instnict about these sort of things. All the animals crouched down real low.

the bald eagle has such an inappropriate call for the majesty of the bird

[zorbaknecromancer]

thumbs up if you jumped off a building after hearing this.

@VampyreCake Same here. It sounds plenty raptor-worthy to me.

[VampyreCake]

Was expecting it to sound a lot worse. I really don't see the problem with it's call.

@69Kambash64 A friend of mine says he watched one hunt a Canada Goose.

@7mikethebike Eagles are picivores. They eat fish.

[7mikethebike]

that white head mkes them very easy to see in the tree. I am sure it makes hunting geese and ducks difficult for them.

@CocoaNutCakery I think the character and image of the bald eagle is much more fitting to the nation than a turkey, although I see what you are saying. To me, seeing a bald eagle is the ultimate positive augury.

@kowalityjesus Bald Eagles are thieves and bullies. Seriously. In fact, this was the primary complaint levelled by Benjamin Franklin against it being the national bird. He favored the turkey.

Coconut Effect, indeed.
