What was it?
A lot of 'sacrebleus'? 'We surrender'? A breakout of waving white flags? ...

Like bald eagles, golden eagles can lift about three or four pounds, a bit more if they swoop down with some airspeed and grab something.

We have a lightly wooded back yard. A couple of years ago I was watching as a squirrel jumped from one pine limb to another. Out of nowhere a hawk appeared and snatched the tree rat out of midair. Speed, strength, precision. The circle of life is a wonder to behold. Thing probably never knew what hit it.

Wow! Good thing that child was wearing a heavy coat- protection from the fall AND the talons!

“Evidence, reference, link?”

Yes, good point, where is the evidence? Police report? Emergency room record? Names of the victims? Newspaper or TV News report with first hand interview? Where is the evidence?

Please post it.
