Now thats got your attention, either love them or hate them and its not always about the footy apert from where I work is soon to be the next west aussie home of football. The new house of pain.

Today I got to see one of the eagles in action up close , I was only 10 ft away from the action. SO ALL THOSE THT MAYBE SQWEEMISH LOOK AWAY NOW..

Thats what I thought it maybe. I have never been up this close to one, if I had got any closer it might have got a bit cranky...pete

Guessing you saw this guy at work..... so that means I can expect him to be checking out my finches pretty soon can I? He looks big enough to carry off one of our new pullets even!
