That is just adorable! Except for the giant beak that can pluck your eyes out.

I like the last pic, eagle just snoozing away. Zero f--ks given.

Beyond awesome.

I've had parrots for going on 30 years now, and one thing they taught me is that birds are generally more cuddly than dogs or cats. It's the part where they are scared to death of primates that you have to get past. Get beyond that, and all they want is a place where they are safe and warm, just like the rest of us.

That guy looks like he's halfway there already.

I'd love a pet Eagle. Just walking around with the Eagle on my shoulder. I'd train it to attack my enemies on sight. It would be great.

[DrCaleb]

No, no it wouldn't.

I thought about getting into Falconry, until I did a little research into how to care for them. They eat meat. Not fresh meat either. And what comes out when they are done with it would strip the paint of a garbage truck!

I'll stick to my little seed eater, thanks!

I would totally go out on a boat and feed that Eagle all the salmon he could eat though.

Hmm!!!...you are aware that eagles practice what’s called “projectile pooping.” That nice young thing you are chatting up won’t be impressed with the reconstituted fish dripping off her blouse afterwards

[llama66]

Women love it when you and them are covered in bird shit.

"hey baby, let me get you out of those bird shit covered clothes". BAM! reason to be naked every time.

Was fishing with my son and 2 kids from California once and an eagle swooped down and snatched a little trout of the line as a 9 year old was reeling it in. Did it maybe 15 feet from the boat and the kid was so amazed he talked about it for days. Didn't even care about losing the fish!
Won't be back to that lake for a while, completely burnt out in the 900 sq km Shovel Lake fire.
