    Cool. The Starlings around here hang out in gangs and harass all the other birds. Noisy buggers too.

    That is badass and way cooler than a couple of microwave burritos.

    Totally awesome pics. :Thumbsup:

    Bald Eagle fans might also enjoy this link to 24-hour streaming video of a local eagle's nest just south of town, across the road from a trout hatchery. It seems to produce new birds every year. In fact, a pair has been incubating three eggs for the past couple of weeks:

    FYI, the bandwidth often gets maxed out during school hours.

    EAGLES RULE!!

    :Thumbsup: WOW!! Amazing pics. Worked at the San Diego Wild Animal Park for +30yrs and once saw a Golden Eagle nail a Mallard that way, but out of a full stoop. Kinda like a Sparrow missile strike only lots of feathers instead of aluminum floating around! :eek6:
