I was wondering why my peacock post jumped from 49k to 53k notes, then I realized I finally got reblogged by Fat-Birds.

I love that blog.

p.s. I still feel bad about the misinformation.

Hey, bro. That bluewhite peacock you posted about? False. It's piebald. Look it up.

Thanks, you’re like the 1000billionth person to tell me this. The place where I originally found the photos had misinformation and searching the incorrect name led to even more photos of the birds. It’s too late now to correct the internet. It unfortunately got out of control. 

Oh well.

I have no patience for these people any more. Do you think that after my post being reblogged 53k+ times that you are the first person to tell me about this? HA.

I love birds, and clearly learned my lesson. Don’t post an amazing photos set without doing proper research first, lest you be chastised by the internet for misinformation.

Two bald eagles in air battle crash-land at airport

Fighting eagles lock talons and are unable to disengage, but both survive

There was a crash landing Sunday at the Duluth International Airport, but it didn’t involve airplanes. Rather, it was two bald eagles, which were fighting in midair when they locked talons. In a rare spectacle of nature, they were unable to disengage in time before crashing to the runway.

“Apparently, mature eagles will sometimes fight over territories,” Randy Hanzal, a Minnesota conservation officer, told GrindTV in an email. “They will do battle in the air, crashing into each other and grabbing an intruding eagle with their talons.

“Usually, they will let go of each other before hitting the ground, but in this case, they had the talons so deeply imbedded in each other they may have been unable to let go.”
