    When I was visiting my sister in Vancouver, the local paper had an article about digging your fish pond deep enough that the eagles wouldn't get the fish.

    My brother-in-law and I agreed that we'd stock the pond just to see the eagles come and grab the fish.

    Locally, a hawk grabbed a pigeon off the gutter above my head, about 6 feet away. Surprised me but I bet it surprised the pigeon more.

    Last week, a Barred Owl slammed into my front window. Surprised everybody.
    Lots of Snowy Owls in the area apparently, but I haven't seen one yet and I've got a half-acre of nice fat squirrels.

We regularly see golden and bald eagles, few types of hawks, ospreys, falcons, owls, and have been known to have a whole town of escape artist ligers. No lie.

    But seriously, We have had neighbors that have lost small dogs to eagles, no lie.

    yup, When I lived in Anchorage, Alaksa, we called the little dogs "Eagle Bait." I remember I read a newspaper article where an eagle had the dog, but the woman had the leash. She ended up winning the tug of war, but the dog died of it's bleeding from the talons.

    The Berry College eagles nest in the top of a pine tree situated between the main entrance and the parking lot of the Cage Athletic and Recreation Center.
