2m Wedge-Tailed Eagle takes down Drone.


Published on Aug 8, 2015 by Melbourne Aerial Video

**Eagle was fine – she was massive, and used talon’s to ‘punch’ the drone out of the sky. Hung around overhead so i got a really good look. Eagle’s health was my main concern also**

This is the last thing a small bird sees when a Wedge-Tailed Eagle decides that you are dinner…

Do not fly drones near birds of prey, they clearly attack seeing you as a threat or the right sized dinner. This will cost you money and potentially harm to the bird. This one was fine.. the drone needed some attention before it could fly again.

If you see a bird of prey while flying. Land. I have added this to my operating procedure.

      1. D’oh! I thought this was in America. I didn’t read the description below it. Was too busy watching the video. I can be pretty careless at times. My bad. Don’t I feel stupid. 🙁
