And I have to say that eagles are A LOT bigger when you seem them down here rather than up in the sky. Holy moly.

That Video was a computer science CGI project from a College in Canada!

They did a very good job, but it is a hoax.

The video is a fake.

Good thing, I'd hate to really see a chld carried off.............even if they did get dropped.

thanks, i'll keep an eye on both of the sussexes, since i can't actually tell them apart any more (they used to have slight differences in the dark feathers of their collar -- no more)

and my next-door neighbor (who also has chickens, and helped me look for the hiding ones this morning) sent me this:
"
The most likely explanation (Vonnegut, 1965) for the defeathering of a chicken is the protective response called "flight molt." Chickens are not stripped clean, but in actuality they lose a large percentage of their feathers under stress in this flight molt process. In a predator-chicken chase situation, flight molt would give the predator a mouth full of feathers instead of fresh fowl. "


anyone know if it's accurate? might explain the pile of feathers...
