Oh those are wonderful pictures. Thanks for the link Jen.

Now I have had a bird attack but not as glamorus as an eagle tho. A turkey buzzard swoop , yuk. Our freezer went down and results were some rotten meat : P.

I was carrying it out to bury when a turkey buzzard buzzed me. DH seen it and shouted ,maybe you need a bath : (.

Yep, not a bird swoop you want to brag about or take pictures.

Ha! That's great, Linda...definitely not one to be "proud" of, but hilarious nonetheless. My hub got swooped by a golden eagle once...and I've heard people have been attacked by owls while wearing fur hats. I've been pooped on by a seagull - not a big one to brag on, either.

What part of MO are you in, Linda? I was born & mostly raised in Columbia...

Oh my goodness Jen, yah we don't want to brag on our bird dealings or doings. I got to quit laughing here, sorry about the bird poop :P

I live 50 miles East of KC off 50 hwy. About 5 minutes East of Powell Gardens. Great place to visit.
