You think that's cool, you should see how an osprey does it. They are so well adapted to catching fish that evolution has turned their talons into fish hooks.
You can go to the upper Skagit river and watch this for yourself. Happens every day. You'll see 70 or 80 birds in the trees taking turns snatching fish out of the water. November best month. I lived near the Skokomish river in Union. Same activity on the lower river. But more active on the Skagit.
Grace and beauty all wrapped up in this majestic scene. I've seen only about 14 bald eagles in my life and each time the site was just jaw dropping awesome.
This bird of prey is so precise. Kind of like watching a well trained gymnast. So many things having to happen with precision one after another, never misses a beat. Breath taking.
People (licensed falconers) bird hunt using their falcons, and they DO get the birds from them, so it isn't entirely out of the realm of possibility. Also, one of the Far East countries has a history of using pelicans to fish. Their techniques involve a long leash around the neck of the bird and once the bird gets a fish the fisherman pulls on the role, constricting the birds ability to swallow the fish after catching it. Saw a documentary on it many years ago. Crazy to watch in action!

Raptors catching their prey is one thing in nature I cannot even begin to comprehend. The ability to see, sense, and do this is quite literally out of this world. So impressive.
the US citizenship test should just consist of being locked in a room with this video on repeat for 3 hours. for extra credit, you will be allowed to bring a case of bud light.
Lazy jackass reluctantly puts in effort to catch something alive instead of the usual pilfering off some other raptor or eating out of a dumpster. Good image.
@@Snek.snack97 Animals don't understand the concept of dumpsters and excessive consumption. To them, we're just idiots wasting food. Why try to catch fish if a bunch of other creatures just gather all the food for you? Just fly over to a boat and get first pick.
@@RafaCL1980 Totally stupid analogy considering that North Vietnam barely had an airforce. Do some research before you try to sound smart by typing Anti-American bullshit. Try again kiddo.
This takes really accurate sight, coordination, timing. Amazing how the eagle happens to have those things for its survival ;) Salmon's on the menu tonight!
These eagles are all like "Excuse me, just passing through grabbing some fast food. No biggie." Freakin' miracles of nature right here. Simply phenomenal.
And at 24 seconds you can actually see the salmon rotating out of the eagle's grip. They cut all the clips at this point because the eagle most likely dropped the fish.
I don't know why this brings me tears of joy I guess that its just such a beautiful magnificent creature and or its just doing its part in the circle of life idk it legit makes me cry though.
wow, such a cool video, it is easy, with slow motion, especially on the third one, the eagles intent, how many milliseconds are slotted for 'claws ready' , for 'snatch the prey' and then back to flight, never skipping a beat, simply amazing....
Eagles truly are incredible birds. Imagine the pinpoint accuracy needed to not only catch a fish, but a Salmon nonetheless. Salmon are incredibly fast swimmers and are hard to catch. For an eagle to not only spot the Salmon in the river and track its movement, but to also accurately scoop it out of the water is impressive as hell.
While fishing in a beautiful Oregon lake, an eagle grabbed a rainbow trout about 15 feet from my canoe. Scared the hell out of me. The eagle was mostly speckled brown, so I think it was a female, and she looked huge that close up. A once in a lifetime experience.
What a great demonstration of the excellent design of eagles. Absolutely stunning precision! Another nail in the evolution coffin. Thank you for such a great video.
0:35s ... back-tall "elevators" and wing "flaps" (+ wing-span) fully extended, for maximum aerodynamic lift, thus securing optimal strike speed, and laser-focused eyesight-on-pray, all the way until final strike. Absolutely impressive, and all of it happening like a walk in the park.... BRUTAL !!
This animal is what inspires the US. Nope, it is not Panda. And, get real. Panda has no Kungfu, happily chewing bamboo shoots. While it is huge, it isn't spreading its wings to span across a wide area, unlike the Bald Eagle. :)
The Eagle never loses eye contact till the mission is complete. Such precision, elegance and beauty.

No. tThat’s multiple shots from multiple angles of multiple Bald Eagles. There great shots, but this is really common
they spent days, sometimes even weeks in the same location at times just to take a good shot. Nature documentarists are truly something else
The salmon didn't have enough freedom.

It needed to be taken out of its lake to feel the freedom!

Its amazing how an eagle approaching its prey looks so similar to an airplane with flaps extended, touching down on a runway.
There's a reason we modeled our planes to look like birds.

It's the opposite lol

It’s fascinating to watch the Eagle’s head turn to follow the fish, like a baseball player tracking the ball towards home plate.
I'm scratching my head on this one . . . how can 149+ people "dislike" this footage? It is amazing footage!
Suzanne Hensler Because it represents the US, and they don't like that.
Maybe because the moron refers to the bald eagle as a bald headed eagle. Maybe that's their way of saying the video poster is a nit-wit.
Democrats who raised their kids to hate America.
Maybe they’re upset about a video depicting a bald eagle being labeled as a bald headed eagle … 🙄!!
Disgusting. Eagles burn in hell!!!
Majestic freaking bird 👍
So graceful.
The Salmon just got liberated from water.
Imagine what strength Bald Eagles must have in their wings to not only catch the fish but rise out of the water with it totally awesome!

This is so amazing that I watched it twice... and then watched it again in 720p.
I remember seeing an eagle catch a fish out of Lake Michigan when I was in Michigan, it was so cool!
It's amazing the concentration Eagles have, their eyes never leave their prey until the talons are on point....
Love the way the eyes (head) follows the fish right into the talons. Great.
