[va-richmond-general] Bald Eagle eating wood

We have an adult BALD EAGLE that perches regularly in a dead tree in our 
neighbor's yard.  The tree has been dead for a couple of years and is getting 
pretty rotten.

This morning I observed the eagle apparently feeding on something at the top of 
the limb that it was perched on.  I figured it was the remnants of a fish 
catch.  On closer examination however, it broke off and swallowed a fair sized 
chunk of rotten wood.
