··So on and so on and scoobie doobie dooIs that a bald eagle beeing chased by a magpie?
I once saw an eagle on the coast being harassed by a couple of seagulls. The eagle was climbing and suddenly twisted it's body and dropped to snatch one of the gulls out of the air. We're not supposed to attribute human emotions to the actions of animals, but that bird seemed to be saying stop f***ing with me.

·Chased by a crow. The crow is going full out and the eagle casually floats with sudden changes in direction to shake off a pest.

·Hey I am wondering if anyone can help with this. We are looking at a property that’s needs more than TLC but has great bones and updates until the builder who owned it sadly passed and his son took over letting some pipes burst and other not cool things.
Anyway it’s many of the trees I’m wondering about. Our area was invaded with a tree killing insect from China or somewhere but I gotta find the articles as it wasn’t in my back yard so it didn’t stick in my already damaged brain. We also had a tornado a few years back that did a number to certain areas and then a weird series of microburst storms that did target this very area. They are saying these trees were damaged by the storms but I’m thinking more likely that bug or fungus I gotta hunt down. I thought I took better pics but maybe someone has an idea.
It’s kinda striking how it took out an area nearby but it seems there is always something going on in the news that takes your eyes off something potentially serious because 300 more serious things pop up the next day.

·Could be the emerald ash borer from Asia. That wiped out all our ash trees when it came up from the US. Do any of the trees have patterns like this?
