  • description: To use this video in a commercial player or in broadcasts, please email licensing@storyful.com As seen on The herald sun, abc america **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. http://melbourneaerialvideo.com.au
