Hope this happens everywhere...



No you don't, dumb****. What happened to the eagle (if that's what it was). Those
propellers will easily take off a finger, let alone cut up an eagle, or hawk or any
other bird, very badly. You'll note the drone is still transmitting, which means the
owner can easily retrieve and repair it.

No one knows what happened to the bird. I hope it made it.

And I hope you learned something.

Myth busters tested drones. All but the biggest were pretty much
harmless. Some of the big commercial ones with carbon fiber blades can
leave a mark ;-)
