Someone sent me this link to a Youtube video about a bald eagle swimming for its meal. I don't know if this has been making the rounds for awhile, but it is the first I've seen it and thought it may interest some of you.

Below is the blurb that accompanied the e-mail:
This footage was taken at Mallard Lakes subdivision in Baton Rouge.
Someone had shot a nutria, and it was floating dead in the water.
I can't believe what this eagle did to bring that nutria in.
Cool. I've seen this behavior out my office window here across the lake from Seattle. A bald eagle swooped in for a fish and then swam to the beach just like that before flying away. Would've like to see it get a nutria though. ;)
