    Lol. That’s not a “way of thinking”. The post you quoted is a fact.

    My goodness. It doesn’t mean I don’t love America, patriotism, freedom, and what the Eagle represents to our Nation. Give me a break.
    Eagles don’t really fly around with arrows in their talons draped in a flag.

    They do eat dead stuff on the road right next to buzzards through. That image isn’t what many of y’all want to see I suppose. SMH

      No they're eagles and many people know the difference

        I know an eagle from a osprey from a hawk from a caracara (yes they are here in NE Texas) from a buzzard

        Not doubting there are a few that see a large bird and can't ID but pretty sure majority can tell difference in them

        I would not shoot an eagle if it had a chicken down in the back yard

        Black headed / Mexican buzzards are different. If I had livestock and caught one near calving or kidding stock it would be eliminated

          We see tons of eagles in Iowa during deer season. They’re always eating the fallen deer that weren’t recovered. We will see dozens at a time.

            You are exactly right, see eagles on dead cows in FL all the time, also live at the deer carcass bone yard. Right beside the buzzards and Cara caras.

            Eagles would prefer to steal fish from Ospreys rather than catch their own as well, have seen that hundreds of times on Florida bay.

            They are just eagles, not some holier than thou bird just because they were chosen to be one of our nation's symbols. National symbol or not, if they are doing depredation damage to citizens animals, they need to go. There is no shortage of Bald eagles.

            And, yes I served proudly in the Army for our country.

                    I’m not coming at you in a hostile manner so please don’t take it that way. I’m just curious if it would make a difference if you are a full time rancher watching him kill your $200+ sheep and goat kids?

                      We have been seeing one Bald Eagle around the house for about 3 weeks now. Odd to see one alone, usually in pairs.

                              My service to our Country is irrelevant in this discussion about a bird.



                              Happy Thanksgiving Uncle Saggy. Have a great day sir.
