On Saturday Feb. 14 several of us observed a bald eagle juvenile at Hiawassee
land, pick up a rock so large it could not close its talons over it
completely, and fly off with it. We are familiar with gulls in the NW dropping
clams
onto cement, and other bird "tool" use, but this was odd. Was he trying to
brain
one of the sandhills? Has anyone seen such behavior from eagles?
