| Here they are like buzzards with white heads. I ran a rabbit out of my last pass of beans and there was an eagle waiting. The eagle made numerous clumsy attempts to get the rabbit who had to cross a quarter mile of open field and cross a highway to get to the safety of a woodlot. I'm sure the eagle never got the rabbit. This spring a deer was hit along my road and died 50 ft or so from the road. The eagles ate on the carcass for a week or so and kept the buzzards away before leaving what little was left for the buzzards. Waterfowl hunters hate them as the eagles have learned to hang out near the hunters and wait for an easy meal of dead or crippled game bird. Eagles hanging around tend to scare the waterfowl away. | |
