I think the consensus is that this is fake. http://www.newstatesman.com/media/2012/12/birdwatchers-are-angry-about-fake-eagle-video
Did you read some of the things posted in that? Good god those bird watchers are nuts. Eagles better hire a PR firm to do damage control to their image.
yea I did, lol. I had no idea the bird watchers were such a touchy bunch. I justed watched the movie "The Big Year" also with Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson, which is a pretty cute and funny movie, but shows how nutty these people get over their birds.
It's fake, a Canadian college homework assignment called "fool the internet" or something like that. Both the Eagle and the kid are completely digital. Impressive work if you ask me...
