![]() This time it’s a Red-tailed Hawk dive-bombing toward the eagle. While I’m enjoying the sight of this beautiful raptor, I see another large bird coming into view. Bald Eagle carrying a red squirrel in its talons My Talons are Fiercer Than Yours The bird’s rapid wingbeats indicate the eagle is powering to its destination, carrying a red squirrel in both its talons. I see the white head and tail, and my mouth drops, as most people do when seeing Bald Eagles in the wild. I’m not far from the Hudson River near the Kingston-Rhinecliff Bridge in Kingston, New York, and a bird with a massive wingspan catches my eye. I saw their fierce grip on display this week, playing out in the sky several hundred feet above me. I’m smart enough to know I should never shake hands with a Bald Eagle because their talons have a killer grip.
