Re: Toptally Awesome Bald Eagle Cam...
Dear Adam,
I do not see that as a likely scenario...however,American cattle ranchers often used to shoot eagles during the first half of the century and even beyond...There was a wildy fictional belief that Eagles could actually pick up calves...Really this was founded in the fact that Eagles could be seen feeding on calf carcasses that had died of natural causes during the spring breeding and roundup season...As a sidebar I witnessed a bald eagle drown in the Pacific Ocean after it picked up a massive sockeye salmon,could not lift it,could not shake talons loose...Additionally I once saw a eagle flying with a captured rattlesnake in it's talons...that was most excellent...
