To be blunt, they look really pissed off. To look at them, I imagine they are plotting some revenge...out flying around with a score to settle...watch out!
We have bald eagles all over here on the island and I usually see them every day. Before I moved to Alaska, I imagined that these majestic large predatory birds must have a screech that signals impending death...a sound like we might imagine comes from an ancient teradactyl. Or at least like a hawk:
But no. I was totally wrong. Eagles do not sound majestic nor dangerous nor even masculine. Eagles surprisingly sound like girly birds chattering at some coffee klatch:
They woke me up the other morning with all their incessant squeaking and chattering. I thought to myself that many people probably aren't aware of the silly sound they make, so decided to share.
Did you know?
oh what a treat!
ReplyDeleteI have seen them by the Mississippi river

and that hawk.....yikes!
