An impressive raptor, no doubt. I watched the video, and I understand the
camera was attached to the dangle, but it appeared to me more as though the
Wedgie was flying with, rather than engaging.
Both birds are much more fierce and fear-inspiring if they don't say anything.
But Wedgie? C'mon. We all know what a wedgie is. It has to do with hoisting
someone's underwear tightly up his (or her) butt crack. Joan is very skilled at
applying wedgies. Damned nuisance she is, sometimes. Can't take a bird
seriously that calls up thoughts of butt cracks.
Besides, purely based on looks, the Bald Eagle is prettier, and looks more
fierce. And as we all know, 'Murkins are all about appearances. <wink>
Kidding aside, thanks for the intro to the Wedgie. Definitely worth knowing
about.
