Bald Eagle Removed From Endangered Species List

Not in our state as long as I am here and a whole lot of caring people

This has nothing to do with hunting, unless, you realize, the wild turkey was almost the national bird...

I see baldies all the time when I'm in the woods. They're amazingly large and quite graceful in the air, until they lose airspeed... saw one harassing a heron, the heron spread out his wings and the eagle tried to stop in mid-air, not a good idea - he almost dug a hole.

They'll also attack you quite viciously if you get too close to their nest. You'll never see 'em coming either.

Well I guess you'll never go robbin' balled eagle eggs again :wink:

I think all raptors, endangered or not, are protected, anyway.

That was a good one
