Ryan- I liked your video. Do you have a licensing agreement for use of this by others? I give naturalist talks and one story I tell is about rescuing an eagle from the ocean miles from shore. One explanation for the eagle being there is that it may have caught a fish larger than it could drag to shore by swimming (I have a short video of a swimming eagle). The other explanation was that it may have been the result of a a courtship dance gone bad. Your video would be a terrific visual of that kind of dance. Pete
