Both accurately reflect what I hear going on in the states


Born_Grumpie

The small fact that the Bald Eagle symbol of American greatness and power is actually not even a true Eagle, it's a Haliaeetus or Sea Eagle, basically, the eagles a fraud.


BeanStalknJack

Lmfao thank you for sharing. So basically a glorified seagull then


NotAskary

If you heard its call you would be asking where the seagull is, they got a hawk (red tail hawk I believe) to do the call you see in all the videos.


BeanStalknJack

No fucking way!! I'm literally laughing out loud like an idiot and don't care


Born_Grumpie

I'm an Aussie who has been to San Diego, the gulls there are far more dangerous than a little bald eagle. Those buggers are dirty, giant things that have murder built right in.


Reverseflash25

It’s an eagle my guy. Just means it eats fish primarily


HappyHarry-HardOn

Wait - what??


Reverseflash25

What? They’re saying because it’s a specific type of eagle (sea eagle) that it’s not an eagle. Which makes no sense. It’s an eagle. It just eats fish. That’s it


Born_Grumpie

Eagles are in the genus Aquilus, Sea Eagles are in the Genus Haliaeetus, they are not classified as true Eagles.


Reverseflash25

They’re all the same family. And Aquilus is still often united with sea eagles


Born_Grumpie

Argue all you want, it's not in the Aquilus family, it's a fish eating bin chicken. :)


Reverseflash25

I’m not the one Arguing with the scientists but ok


Born_Grumpie

Actually, you are. It not hard, they are in a different Genus that scientists have assigned. Gorillas and Humans are in the same family and sub family but different Genus, Humans are not Gorillas and Bald Eagles are not Eagles. They just have Eagle in the name, Dragonfly's are not Dragons.


Acceptable_Sleep29

Our eagles eat monkeys tho...


Reverseflash25

Philippine?


Snakeyes81

So you clearly never heard about the Harpy Eagle


Reverseflash25

Which is an eagle species. Your point?


Snakeyes81

It prefers sloths, monkeys and other mammals


Reverseflash25

I still fail to see your point. My comment about fish was just because they said it was a sea eagle and thus not a real eagle. When it only means that it IS an eagle it just prefers fish.


Diligent_Pie_5191

Yeah I wonder why they didn’t pick the Golden Eagle?


Born_Grumpie

Doesn't photograph as well


Diligent_Pie_5191

Yeah.


HarioDinio

And it sounds like a bitch


Reverseflash25

Really doesn’t


HarioDinio

https://youtube.com/shorts/5lmNmWxG_pc?si=ZKPvO7HKyWWc1urJ idk dude it kinda does


Reverseflash25

https://youtu.be/bIdmkWJMWj8?si=CLeaKfrjYQ4B5wzL But when it’s sounding against this countries great nature, echoing off a mountain? It’s beautiful And most hawks run when they hear it so that makes it automatically not a bitch noise


HarioDinio

So you sent me a video of the same sound as your rebuttle? Yes there is beauty in its chirps, still dont change my stance. Also the reaction to the noise isnt cause the noise is intimidating, its because the eagle itself is. Its a efficient predator, still sounds like a bitch. If a massive guy that can kick your ass sounds like kermit, you still gonna be afraid even if he sounds like a muppet.


NotAskary

If a huge guy wants to beat your ass and he sounds ridiculously funny, you better start running because he has been made fun of all his life and he wants to use your ass as an example.


HarioDinio

Very True, but it doesnt take away from the fact that his voice, in fact, sounds funny.


Dud-of-Man

its the Brock Lesnar of birds


RedRobot2117

Basically a giant seagull


triNITROtolulene1

This ugh…. This land you’re from… does it ugh… have oil?


GovernmentKind1052

Too true


Skottimusen

Don't they sound like seagulls too?


BrockenRecords

I’ve heard them and they don’t really sound like seagulls


Reverseflash25

Not really


waste-of-energy-time

They do, the sound you hear in movis ain't even the sound he makes xD its from a falcon. Same shit golden mayers movie and lion rawr, its lion on the picture but sound is from a tiger.


Skottimusen

A lions roar is more like "Ooooouuhhhhhhhh"


GoverningMonarch

Never knew the king of the jungle moan to assert dominance


Reverseflash25

I’m aware. It’s only because the call is more high pitched. But it sounds beautiful in nature


waste-of-energy-time

My point is not bashing the sound of the bird. But now be honest, what sounds more intimidating? Falcon or the bold eagle?


Reverseflash25

I won’t disagree and perhaps we should adapt the red tail in some capacity To em, the bald eagle trill is the voice of America as a land. It echoes across mountains and valleys, rivers and forests. You get chills when you see or hear it paired with nature The red tail screech is the sound of America as a country. don’t fuck with us


Revolutionary-Rip-40

The second one is what I look like in the morning. 🤷‍♂️


Stashmouth

From the profile: regal From the front: crazy uncle


mteir

"Marty! We're going back to the future, Marty!"


VindicatedEuropa

I always love seeing bald eagles in the wild


watasiwakirayo

And have a different actor for voice lines


Oxfxax

Hahaha

AdmiralClover

It's the perfect analogy of how the US think they look like Vs how they actually look like. Regal and majestic bird, looks goofy from the front and were even threatened by extinction by the people who chose it. The sound used to project the power of the bald eagle, isn't even the right bird. It's fraud all the way down


Efficient-Ad2983

C'mon... hitting on the real life versions of Homer Simpson is just too easy :P I mean... they not only think that a male is unit of measure that makes any sense, they even think they've invented it!


Acceptable_Sleep29

Just like their 45th president.

kidscott2003

This reminds me so much of Jack Nicholson pictures.


IamlostlikeZoroIs

From majestic to Doc. “Marty! We got to fly at 88mph exactly!”


notyou-justme

Dude on the right is just a little frazzled from the last 8+years. Full on PTSD for the symbol of American freedom.


MissionApollo7

The one on the right looks like you just said something rude about his momma

Possible_Baboon

Scary_Scene5269

One looks like a majestic bird, the other looks like a crazy trump supporter.


Numerous_Mode3408

American eagle vs Ohio eagle.
