Title: Heres a Holy Crow, actually Eagle Moment

This is not for the faint of heart, and I have no idea what this crazy cat is saying, Who gives a, anyway, this is some amazing photography of the Golden Eagle.

There will be bloodshed, and things do get eaten. Also some high cliff throwing.

It looked to me like the chamois at the beginning had evil intent.  It was looking at the little bird (who wasn't even looking at the chamois) and thinking about a taste-test.  Then, a whole gang of them started to move down the slope to create a trap for the poor little bird.

It was pretty obvious to me that the first chamois baited the bird in with a worm, and his buddies were hiding behind the rock, ready to jump out and do some serious bird-stomping.  Then the bird got her poor feet caught in the wool, and struggled to break free.

As both critters fall off the cliff, the music is covering the little voices of the chamois gang, as they say "tell us when your ready, we'll jump out and stomp her... Hey, where did she go?"

I can see how the clip could be mis-leading, though, and skewed to make it look like it was the birds fault.

Looked like perfectly executed and clean vulches to me.  That's what happens when you park your goats on the side of a hill.


Friggin awsome watching the Eagle hitting the fly-thru and carrying dinner home.   :O

That eagle is a vulcher. You can plainly see that it had already de-acked the base and was just waiting for that NOE chamois mission to up.
