Golden Eagle Attempts to Snatch a Kid

[JIMMYBUFFETT]

I've seen a ?kite in Africa take a goat (kid) so they can lift more than you'd think.

I've also had a hawk fly within a foot of me trying to catch a quail. The quail flew into me then ran into a hedge. We were rabbit hunting and there were three of us and several dogs.

I was deer hunting a few years back and walking down a fence line when I saw a small covey of quail running down the fence line in front of me. I caught a screech owl out of the corner of my eye diving at the quail. Much to the owl's disappointment the quail were on the opposite side of the fence and he couldn't see that. He smashed the bob wire fence at full speed and scared the hell out of the quail. I stopped and just watched him stand there dazed for what seemed like minutes before he finally flew away. He flew home hungry that night.

What does this even mean? I don't understand the English being used.

Did he steal a tablet and he is trying to cut/paste from it? Why would you steal a tablet during the holidays? Why not just wait to see if you got one under the tree?

How do you highlight what you want to copy? Trying to learn.

Tap the screen near where you want to copy and hold your finger there for a second then let up. (a long tap) Two blue markers will appear (left and right) around a word and a menu at the top of the screen. Use the left one to mark where you want the copying to start, and the right one where you want it to stop. Then click the button that looks like two pieces of paper to copy it. If it's editable, you will see scissors to be able to cut it.

When you want to paste it, do the long tap again and a paste button will appear.

Update: Yep, just got confirmation that the video was created using CGI by four students at Centre NAD as part of a school project. Apparently both the eagle and the child are CGI, added to the video afterward.

Here's the statement.
