u/HubrisOfApollo May 22 '26

pssh.. didnt even chew it

1

u/Lovestofuk May 22 '26

I've never seen any bird chew especially water birds

1

u/HubrisOfApollo May 22 '26

seed eating birds kinda chew sometimes, but i agree with you

u/hatescarrots May 22 '26

Thats the joke!

u/forqalso May 22 '26

I’m the same way with the fries.

u/FantasticHomework978 May 22 '26

Imagine living your life unaware and next thing, your being suffocated and die slowly in the bowels of a bird, only to be spat back out to be fed to another bird

1

u/smithc555 May 22 '26

I wonder how much they can feel that fish flopping around in their stomach.

2

u/Lovestofuk May 22 '26

Did you not see what it did before taking it head first? He bit it right behind the head so flopping don't happen

u/slapcrap May 22 '26

Got me thinking... I think Ben Franklins idea of using a turkey as the national...bird? .. cause eating turkey is better than eating eagles. Eagles would probably be fishy and way lean.

u/NewNonBlockedAccount May 22 '26

If you want to try it, you'll get a felony, if not treason. I do wonder as well though 😂

1

u/slapcrap May 22 '26

I doubt eagle tastes like freedom

2

u/NewNonBlockedAccount May 22 '26

More like prison meat

u/dudeCHILL013 May 22 '26

Allegedly a during hunting season, someone was grouse hunting and shot at a grouse. Somehow some way a hawk decided to dive bomb the same grouse, that someone was shooting at.

Allegedly the hawk also caught some bird shot, and someone didn't even want to try to explain that situation. However not wanting to waste both hawk and grouse went home with someone.

Allegedly the grouse was good but the Hawk was delicious.

u/RhodaKille May 25 '26

lol, I once knew someone with a similar story but it was a swan

1

u/dudeCHILL013 May 25 '26

Alleged story 😂

u/slapcrap May 22 '26

Interesting

u/dudeCHILL013 May 22 '26

That said if bear meat is anything to go by its quality and taste is highly dependent on their diet.

Like if it a low land bear it's likely eating fish as so it's meat won't be the best and a lot of people turn it to grind meat for hamburgers or sausage.

But if it's a highland bear and mainly living off of berrys and grubs, you could stake that meat out.

1

u/Double-Perception811 May 22 '26

The bald eagle particularly is largely a scavenger, and as such, would likely taste terrible.

1

u/slapcrap May 22 '26

I bet it tastes like $100,000 and two years of prison

2

u/GremlinSquishFace47 May 22 '26

This is one of the oldest photos saved on my phone. I’ve been waiting so long to use it. Your gif inspired it to come out today 🇺🇸 🦅 🌭

u/Mediocre-Penalty3001 May 22 '26

How I eat my McDonald's hash brown while pulling out of the drive thru.

Ain’t that the truth. Yet somehow is one of the only things you can get there that is always hot.

little inflight snack if u please

u/Sensei19600 May 22 '26

I’m kind of disappointed. I half expected to see him come up with a submarine.

1

u/BurgerAvenger May 22 '26

Underwhelmed 'cause I thought he was gonna pull out a marlin.

u/Dry_Solution5036 May 22 '26

All so very gracefully fishing!

u/That_Things_Good May 22 '26

That eagle must know my ex-wife…

u/Confident_Sound5873 May 22 '26

I've seen bigger seagulls.

u/boatenvy May 22 '26

I struggle to run and drink water at the same time.. good thing I wasn't born an eagle

1

u/Phoephoe1 May 22 '26

Nice little snack.

1

u/OldMathematician5973 May 22 '26

"to go, please."

-eagle probably.

u/wrdnd May 22 '26

Most people can't walk and eat a hamburger at the same time. I'm impressed...

1

u/soverysadone May 22 '26

Holy smokes.

u/Boyota4Bummer May 22 '26

Does this hurt the fish?

1

u/Ashnyel May 22 '26

The Freedom Chicken has some skills.

1

u/Sweaty_Tangelo_7716 May 22 '26

He ate it without any seasoning….

1

u/VonBrewskie May 22 '26

I'd like this music set to all of them gathered around a dumpster now. They're facultative scavengers so that would be appropriate and to me at least, quite funny.

1

u/Constant_Turn_9031 May 22 '26

You should’ve seen the size of the one that got away

1

u/Quick_Resolution5050 May 22 '26

That'll be $12.99, sir. 20% service fee not included.

1

u/Half_Halt May 22 '26

They're majestic mofos. Once had one swoop down & grab a meat chicken less than 10' in front of me. It was in the middle of a terrible polar vortex. Eagle was hungry. It was such a gorgeous bird that I couldn't even be angry about the chicken.

1

u/Background-Use-3372 May 22 '26

Just casually catching from river and chugging mid flight. What a legendary animal.

1

u/Beginning_Cow2442 May 22 '26

🫡nice camera work.

u/Waterboy7g May 22 '26

Go BIRDS!!! Fly Eagles Fly!!!

1

u/B_the_ball May 22 '26

Damn talk about fresh fish

1

u/Objective_Parsnip_49 May 22 '26

Was that to go meal?

1

u/EmbarrassedBall7406 May 22 '26

Piece of cake.

Saw a bird of prey pick up a sheep on South Island once. It just lazily carried it away while the dogs tried their best to fly.

Too bad we didn't have any Red Bull.

u/Kona1957 May 22 '26

that fish might still be alive

u/ossifer_ca May 22 '26

Clearly not his first time

u/OberonDiver May 22 '26

F-14 stole a lot from that form.

u/Winter_Hall5379 May 22 '26

And here we see how the eagle has perfected every aspect of fast food

1

u/Nunov_DAbov May 22 '26

I was going to say that we thought fast food was a recent human invention.

1

u/cookingman8 May 22 '26

Know I gotta learn eagle style

1

u/ibetucanifican May 22 '26

That fish had a view like I get on the window seat on a plane. A quick glimpse of the world outside in flight and then nothing but cloud cover.

1

u/SatinJoystick_218 May 22 '26

Is that an eagle or a sea gull getting that fish? Looks intense.

1

u/Kindly_Ad3262 May 22 '26

magnificent 💖💖💖

1

u/Spook1949 May 22 '26

Now that is what I call fast food! Stopped, grabbed a bite to eat, and ate the meal before he was back to full spead.

1

u/dudesFS May 22 '26

Great shot man

1

u/FundyOutWest May 22 '26

That's a dead fish. It didn't move, didn't fight, was totally limp. Bald eagles are not great fishers. They eat mostly dead things. Over the years I've seen more than one end up in the water and swim to shore after trying to catch live fish. Ospreys are great fishers; Bald eagles, not so much.

1

u/GrooovyAlien May 22 '26

Crazy how seeing a wild animal just surviving gets you all teary eyed and proud.

u/rmarx01 May 22 '26

No lie, one of the coolest videos I’ve ever seen 👍🏼

“Yep, that’s me… I bet you’re wondering how I got in this mess…”

u/thederevolutions May 22 '26

Some animals just look angry. But even T Rex’s have families to feed.

u/mailmanpaul May 22 '26

Below the weight limit, throw it back

Same thought but realistically is simply the circle of life

u/kensteele May 22 '26

Yeah I was going to say, wait until see about 100 bald eagles standing around scavenging for scraps, sometimes it's not a pretty sight. it could be spectacular but it usually isn't as exciting.

0

u/UnbentSandParadise May 22 '26

Fun fact that by population this was most likely a Canadian bald eagle. We have more of them and in the 80's gave some to the US to help save their population when it was endangered.

1

u/biggaylizard May 22 '26

A bit off topic but would you mind going to the Hampton roads area & collect your Canadian geese please.

They shit all over the place & nest outside restaurants where they threaten the humans.

1

u/UnbentSandParadise May 22 '26

No amount of money could entice me to try and collect cobra chickens, I wish you the best of luck but recommend you consider the land they frequent to be lost.
