Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

I drove in to town this morning and on the road close to my house a crow was pecking at an ex-squirrel (Monty Python fans will get the reference). Crow flew away as I drove past.

Coming home I looked over to my left, at a neighbors house there were three people standing there looking up at the sky. Hmm, wonder what they are looking at? I slowed just a tad and tried to see what was going on, and a flash out of the corner of my eye something was falling, came from the left side of my vision to right at the front of my truck.

It was a bald eagle that swooped down and grabbed the squirrel off the road and flew off. I came so close to hitting the darn thing, luckily his timing was perfect.

Wish I had a dash cam. We have a ton of bald eagles in our area so not uncommon to see, but you dont get to see em in action that close too often.
