The eagles have just brought the babies a fish and a crow

[Generic Other]

Along with the rabbit they have been polishing off, they are ferocious eaters!

1. Someone needs to do a youtube remix

First a tight shot showing the cute little babies chirping and being fed, with some lullaby music playing softly in the background.

Then as the camera pulls out, you start to see the surrounding carnage, dead birds pulled apart, a rabbit, the fish, etc -- and put that horror flick music.

C'mon someone, do it!

[angstlessk]

11. I saw the one go to sleep but the other seemed to be slighted..and was almost saying

with body language...what..you are eating MY SHIT...that is supposed to be MY FOOD...and he/she sorta stands up....wings spread out...to dare the parent to eat the last vestige...which the parent does..then settles down on the brood.

4. Only two

Amazing how much food the parents have stockpiled!

[calimary]

5. Yeah - fish, fowl, mammal. Looks like the little family will have plenty to eat.

This is SOOOOOOOOO cool!

7. When does the garbage truck come by? They need to take out the refuse.

Gack!

[Kingofalldems]

10. For some reason I thought eagles, hawks etc. would not eat a crow

I was way wrong.

[shireen]

12. wow! the quality of the video feed is fantastic!

even has sound. Very cool!

[Duer 157099]

14. It has GOT to be getting a little ripe up there

I'm expecting them to bring a cow soon, just so'as they'll have all their bases covered. I wonder if they do this variety so that the babies get a taste of various foods early so they don't become picky eaters?

16. ....

"I'm expecting them to bring a cow soon"

:spray:

OMG, that just made me laugh out loud for the first time today. THANK YOU!!!

:rofl:

[calimary]

18. My husband the science guy says "they're feeding the kids everything they want them

to get a taste for."

Makes sense. All food sources considered.

21. I'm wondering if there's any passive-aggressive message

in that crow that the male brought back.

"Who's gonna eat crow now, hmmmmm?"

edit: or actually, it's probably his way of apologizing for almost tossing firstborn out of the nest earlier. His way of telling mamma "Yeah, I ate crow, here's the proof."

17. I am watching with my cat Popcorn.

He just told me he likes this better than Phoebe (hummer) and Molly (owl) because the sound is better.

He just asked me to put this up on the 42" screen. Told him to get his own computer and tv.

19. There's a lot of dead bodies in that nest

[Evolve_Already]

20. Thank you for this post.

All I can say is wow, oh wow.

[jwirr]

22. Please I know you are all enjoying this but not so graphic! A damn

eagle killed my little dog last summer. I for one hate them.

[Auntie Bush]

23. I'm sooooo sorry! That's horrible!!!

Poor little dog.

[jwirr]

24. Yeah, I still have nightmares about it.

[calimary]

25. Understood. We lost a beautiful but dumb Persian cat to SOMETHING in the back yard.

Might have been a coyote or something (we don't live in eagle country), and it was interrupted, so the little evicerated carcass was left in the backyard for us to find. OY. I remember hoping that it had been quick, at least. They're wild. My sympathies. It's a wild world out there. And sometimes it draws blood. Beautiful. But also deadly.

26. A friend of mine lives on a golf course in Phoenix.

A tree with a Golden Eagle nest in it blew over into his backyard.

There were over 100 collars (dog/cat) in the nest.

27. Karma can be a bitch...

[LisaL]

28. Persian cats have lost their natural defenses and should be kept

inside at all times.

[jwirr]

30. My thoughts exactly.

[suffragette]

29. Thank you for this thread

Amazing to watch!
