    my 2 buddies trained a bald eagle while ice fishing.

    they would take the first pike they would catch and throw it on the ice like 20 yards away. the eagle would swoop down and grab it, everytime. was fucking awesome to watch.

    sometimes it takes it a few times to grip it and if you go and look at the fish itll have a bunch of long cuts from the talons

    Sounds like the eagle trained your friends to give him a free fish

    kind of reminds me of this joke...
    A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his customer, "This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you."
    The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, "Which do you want, son?" The boy takes the quarters and leaves.
    "What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!"
    Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store.
    "Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?"

    The boy licked his cone and replied, "Because, the day I take the dollar, the game's over!"

    It stood up and looked at the camera! I still see 2 eggs, maybe a 3rd on the way.

    I watched that for about 10 seconds. My first thought was "Cool... a bald eagle!" My second thought was "Damn, this is boring!"

    Just checked back in. Looks like papa eagle is keeping watch now. He's a little more active.

    When I watch this I wonder how it came about that the allegedly most intelligent life form on this planet is terminally fucking it up for all the other living things.

    What a clever joke. Don't fix if it's not broken.

    Actually, I think skercrazy was the first one to ever dub me ST311, but it was in a PM and then I posted the PM in one of those old school "Post your PMs" threads. Honorable recognition tho for first one to ever post it themselves :)
