I don't know if all of these segments are for real(especially the last one with the girl on the bicycle), but the video has had a lot of views.

I wouldn't want to tangle with a golden eagle. I was fishing in a stream north of Phoenix once and saw a shadow wider than the stream coming towards me. One landed directly across from me on the other side and started bitching at me. That thing was HUGE! Seeing one in pictures or a video doesn't do it justice. I guess he didn't like me fishing his stream. He eventually left without incident.

The Iowas have an eagle rescue/sanctuary facility a couple miles south of Perkins just off of 177 (go west on the Lincoln/Payne county line road). Very much worth a stop if you're in the area. You can get pretty close to the birds that cannot be released back into the wild and they are impressive to say the least.

The last one is a Magpie, not an eagle. A radio personality is trying different means to prevent a magpie from dive-bombing on a local road. Which makes me wonder about the credibility of all the other videos..

Is this an "open to public" place, or a view from the roadside kind of deal? Interesting.
