Chapter 102 Bald Eagle (Part 7)
The bald eagles hovering over the sea and along the coast, with their excellent eyesight, can see the black dorsal fins sticking out of the sea from afar.
"oyi~"
“Oh~”
“Oh~”
The eagles were extremely excited, cheering in different tones from their beaks and chirping to express their welcome.
Apparently, the birds recognize killer whales.
In the eyes of bald eagles, killer whales are large deep-sea fish that look like eggplants and cannot fly.
Sometimes, killer whales will help them drive small fish from the bottom of the sea to the surface of the sea, making it easier for the eagles to catch them.
Some good whales are happy to help birds and will even kill fish directly. The eagle sauce just needs to seize the opportunity to fly over and pick up the spoils.
That's right.
Like the killer whale and the little man, the killer whale is also part of the Eagle Sauce's kleptoparasitic play.
In stark contrast to the bald eagle's excited reaction, the sea lions that jumped into the sea to look for food sensed the approaching whales and felt their blood vessels suppressed, so they were frightened and screamed.
They were thrashing around in the water, wishing they could grow four legs like their distant relatives, the Kruger lions, so they could run away at any moment.
In just a few minutes, all the sea lions in the deep sea swam to the shallow sea. The sea lions in the shallow sea struggled to get ashore, fearing that they would be "death locked" if they were a little slower.
The sea lions that came from afar were patrolling the coast, waiting for the sea lions to jump down.
[Guarding the shore and waiting for the lion.jpg]
Yu Yiyun folded his wings, stood on a large rock on the shore, looked at the looming dorsal fin of the passing whale, and instantly came to a conclusion:
This generation of killer whales will not run aground!
Yu Yiyun wanted to fly over and tell them:
Maybe you need a hybrid killer whale named "Little One" who has a super cute appearance and voice and has many companions~
Thoughts are thoughts, dreams are dreams, but Yu Yiyun did not really flap her wings and fly over, chirping towards the top predator on the seabed.
It was only the third day since he learned to fly, and his wings had not yet been completely tamed, so it was naturally impossible for him to master the superb skill of hovering over the sea.
If they don't perform well, then we won't be reminiscing about the past, but delivering takeout to the killer whales.
Maybe before dying, the picky whale will complain that "Eagle sauce is not tasty and it makes your throat sore."
The fat little bird put away his dangerous thoughts and slurped down the last two bites of the sea lion meat.
Then, flapping its wings, it followed its mommy and daddy who had successfully snatched two large pieces of meat from the pile of hawk sauce, and flew towards home...flew...
Wait, why can’t it fly?
Yu Yiyun spread his wings and, like all sea eagles, used his flight feathers to catch the updrafts.
As a result, among the huge number of returning passengers, he was the only one who flew lower and lower and almost got himself hung on a tree along the way.
Yu Yiyun flapped his wings twice, trying hard to increase his altitude, and seemed to have found the reason why he couldn't fly.
——Eat too much.
Fatty had just eaten two large herrings and a large piece of sea lion meat. His stomach and bladder were filled to the brim, and his weight had increased by at least 30%.
The two-month-old chick is still developing, and its wings and spine structure are relatively fragile and cannot support such a "round" body.
Yu Yiyun, who had been fat for several lifetimes and reaped all the benefits of her weight, suffered retribution for eating too much for the first time.
[Rookie crying.jpg]
Fortunately, the little fat bird is born with a straightforward digestive system and its digestion speed is amazing.
After the bird sneakily applied natural fertilizer to the nearby plants, he flapped his wings again and took off.
With less weight in my belly, flying becomes much easier.
After experiencing the feeling of being "as light as a swallow", the thought of "losing weight" flashed through Yu Yiyun's mind for the second time.
It’s decided!
Start controlling your weight tomorrow!
Even if you fail to lose weight, you can't continue to gain weight~!
I don’t want to become a chicken that can’t fly!
He was determined, determined, and unstoppable, and then...
I’m hungry!
The journey home is a full twenty kilometers, and the fat little bird is "flying with weights" and consumes too many calories.
As soon as he landed in his own bird's nest, he acted like a starving ghost, snatching a piece of meat from his brother and sister's mouths, and using the common excuses of people who want to lose weight:
How can you have the energy to lose weight if you don’t eat enough?
[Justified.jpg]
I don’t mind my older brothers and sisters having their food taken away from them; I’m used to it.
Seeing his younger brother return triumphantly, he was filled with envy.
After eating the meat, they didn't even take a rest. Instead, they immediately climbed out of the bird's nest to learn how to fly.
The sea eagle couple saw the two young birds standing on the branch, flapping their wings to practice flapping their wings. Unexpectedly, they both lay in the nest, without any intention of helping.
For eagles, parents can hardly help them learn to fly, and if they don't kick them from behind, it means their fatherly love is as great as a mountain.
In Eagle Sauce's understanding, flying is the instinct of the bald eagle.
No need to be taught, you will be able to fly naturally at a certain stage.
If the young bird cannot fly for more than three months, the sea eagle parents will stop feeding it and stimulate the young bird to leave the nest through hunger.
All eagles will not consider the possibility that their children cannot fly.
Oh.
Only the strong are worthy of being the eagle's children!
However, as a teacher with many students all over the world, Yunyun is particularly good at teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.
Although it was the first time that she unlocked the 'empty' attribute students, Teacher Yunyun was not panicked at all. She patiently taught her brothers and sisters the experience she had summarized without reservation.
He took the two young birds to a lower branch to give their companions more opportunities to make mistakes.
Then, in front of them, it flapped its wings at the slowest speed so that the two baby birds could see its movements clearly.
"Chirp!" Like this, spread your wings first.
"Chirp...Chirp!" Then jump up...ah!
After the fat little bird demonstrated the preparatory movements before takeoff, its round body rushed out due to inertia.
After more than three days of practice, he was able to fly smoothly.
However, the wing-spreading movement just now was too slow and did not provide enough assistance, so Yu Yiyun fell directly from the branch.
Seeing that his head was about to dive into the mud again, Yu Yiyun flapped his wings quickly, steadied his body only 0.1 meters above the ground, and flew to the tree branch with a whoosh.
"Chichi..." It was just an accident...
The fat little one was just about to explain.
Unexpectedly, after watching his demonstration, his brother and sister looked enlightened. They spread their wings and began to flap them slowly, then jumped down without hesitation.
“…Chirp.”
Before Yu Yijun could stop them, two more sand sculptures with their heads buried in the soil appeared under the tree.
The little fat bird flew down quickly and circled around the two sand sculptures.
“Chirp.”
I just wanted to tell you that you don’t need to learn this.
"Jiji!" Save me!
"Chirp!" And me!
For all eagles, learning to fly is a one-shot, do-or-die process with few detours.
Teacher Yunyun created a detour for her siblings with her outstanding performance.
Since then, the two cubs at home seemed to only follow the first demonstration and insisted on jumping straight down from the tree branch, 0.1 meters above the ground before trying to fly.
Yu Yiyun tried to correct them several times but failed, so she had no choice but to accompany them to practice the thrilling and difficult take-off method.
After practicing for two or three days, they actually learned it!
The two sand sculptures have mastered special flying skills. Every time they fly, they must find a suitable tree branch and then look down to grab the ground with their heads.
Such operation not only increases the difficulty for oneself, but also scares the staff who are closely watching the growth of the young birds through cameras.
The first shot I took showed two baby birds jumping out of the nest, standing side by side on a tree branch, and falling straight down with their heads down.
Based on their years of experience, the Wild Orphan Chick Care Association guessed that the two birds had not stood firmly or had been blown down by the strong wind, so they rushed over and looked for the birds under the tree.
It was a sultry summer night, with no stars or moon, and only the whistling sea breeze blowing around.
On the pitch-dark beach, more than a dozen staff members searched for two hours with flashlights but did not find even a single bird feather.
Suddenly, a colleague shouted, causing everyone to look up.
I saw that branch was still next to the bird's nest.
The two baby birds that were thought to have fallen to death were now standing in a row, jumping straight down in the same posture with their heads facing downwards.
Instantly, all the staff members suffered cardiac arrest and instantly experienced the essence of Chinese horror.
It must be because they did not arrive in time to rescue them, so the souls of the two young birds lingered here for a long time, repeating their past lives... uh.
Under the eyes of all the staff, the young bird jumped to the 3/4 position, suddenly spread its wings and began to spiral into the sky.
“Chirp?”
Yu Yiyun, who was woken up, poked her head out of the bird's nest and saw her two little cats circling around the little man's head.
The little fat bird chirped loudly, calling his brothers and sisters to go back to the nest to sleep, as they still had to catch herrings tomorrow.
"Chirp!" Brother, look, there are so many bipeds!
"Chacha~" Man, why don't you smile~Are you born not to like smiling?
The three young birds could not understand each other's language, but they had their own happiness.
Only the staff who arrived overnight stood there exhausted.
After repeating the same thing several times, the staff finally realized that "tree jumping to help fly" was the unique flying method of this nest of sea eagles.
Some birds with rich flying experience may also adopt this take-off method for the sake of excitement, but it is rare for young birds that have just learned to fly.
The staff found it curious and edited a vlog of the three little sea eagles and posted it on the social networking site.
Nowadays, bald eagles can be seen everywhere in the United States, Canada, and Europe.
The staff originally thought that it was common for young birds to learn to fly and would not cause much concern.
Who would have thought that not long after the video was uploaded, it went viral in a strange way.
The next day, the staff saw on the hot list of the world's largest video platform that the video material they uploaded had been re-created by countless netizens with a variety of titles.
《Wonderful, right? The ball can also take off! 》
"It was not until he spread his wings that I realized he was actually a bird"

…
Little Fatty never expected that his overly round flying posture would make him the most special eagle in the flock of birds.
Before the bald eagle reaches sexual maturity, its body is covered with brown-gray feathers and its appearance is far inferior to that of an adult eagle.
There are even many people who are unable to distinguish between young bald eagles and other eagles, and lack the proper respect for our national bird.
Yu Yiyun used only the power of a single bird to help people remember the basic characteristics of a young sea eagle:
A furry chirp ball.
On the second day after the video went viral, Yu Yiyun, who was already able to successfully control her wings, flew over the beach with her parents as usual.
The heat dome has not yet subsided, and groups of eagles have flocked to the shore where sea lions breed to catch herring or eat unfortunate sea lions that died in infighting.
Due to the hot weather in recent days, there are few tourists on the beach.
For some reason today, it was suddenly crowded.
Yu Yiyun flew over the little people’s heads and heard their excited screams, as if she had met some top star.
Yu Yiyun, who was born to love joining in the fun and had developed a habit of "liking to suck little people's pussy" in his previous life, deliberately lowered the flying altitude to see why they were dancing.
Who would have thought that as soon as he landed, the little guy screamed even louder.
Not just screaming, but even with fear and worry.
"Oh! Baby, can't you fly anymore?"
"Wait! Wait! Don't hit me!"
"I brought a picnic blanket. Are there any strongest men willing to help? It will take at least ten strong men to catch that fat eagle!"
"Hahahahaha~ I told you a fur ball can't fly very far!"
“Chirp!”
Rude!
I can fly!
Yu Yiyun approached the little man and realized that they had come here specifically to watch him fly.
You can visit it if you want, but they even said, "It takes ten strong men to catch it," "I've never seen such a fat bird," and "It's fatter than the geese in the farm."
The little fat bird suddenly got angry and showed off its skills to the group of little people who couldn't fly. It deliberately circled a few times and took away the sunglasses of one of them and held it in its mouth.
A certain eagle, relying on the fact that it is the national bird, behaves like a robber, hovering in the air and looking provocatively at the person being robbed.
“Chirp!”
Unexpectedly, the other party was not angry at all, but smiled and said:
"Fat baby, that's too big for you. I happen to have baby sunglasses with me, maybe they'll fit you."
As she spoke, she took out a glasses case from her bag, found a pair of small mini sunglasses, and tried to put them on the fat little kid.
Unfortunately, the little fat bird has no earlobes, and the attempt to hang it failed several times.
People on the beach found it interesting and took out their phones and cameras to take pictures, saying, "I've never seen a bird that looks so good in wearing sunglasses."
Yu Yiyun saw his own appearance through the reflection of the camera lens and tilted his head.
With sunglasses, the evil image of Eagle Sauce becomes more concrete.
The little guy took off his sunglasses with regret, his tone was full of regret.
"If there were sunglasses you could wear, that would be great."
Yu Yiyun couldn't understand at first why humans suddenly said this.
Do you want to dress up wild animals as pets?
After thinking for a few seconds, Yu Yiyun suddenly reacted.
Eagles have excellent eyesight, but they have a fatal flaw: they cannot look directly into the sunlight.
Therefore, eagles have very long eyelashes and special eyelid nictitating membranes, all for the purpose of blocking the sunlight.
'Unable to look directly at the sun' causes the Eagle to lose its vision above and always habitually look down.
Like all eagles, bald eagles need to fly high in the sky to patrol and search for prey.
Every year, many bald eagles die from flying at high speeds and crashing into windmill-shaped turbine blades or high-voltage power lines.
If there were sunglasses specifically for Americans, perhaps this risk could be avoided.
The little fat bird made a "chi" sound, denying the little human's idea.
Perhaps sunglasses can give them an upward field of vision, but they will weaken their adaptability.
But if they can't even overcome such a small difficulty, how can the bald eagle rely on its own abilities to fight against the increasingly cruel nature?
Born as an eagle, you must dominate the sky with your own strength.
Yu Yiyun returned the sunglasses to the little man, flapped his wings and took off again, speeding up to catch up with the main group.
The people gathered on the beach looked at the black glutinous rice ball disappearing into the distance, waving and shouting excitedly, and even uploaded the video they had taken to the Internet.
Soon, "Have you ever seen a flying ball?" became a hot topic of the day.
Yu Yiyun: [swearing.jpg]
Because Yu Yiyun was addicted to sucking the little man, he wasted a lot of time. When he arrived, the beach was already very lively.
In recent days, female sea lions have come ashore one after another, surrounding the powerful male sea lions and forming one "harem" after another.
According to surveys, male sea lions in their peak years have an average of 25 female partners.
The young male lion, who cannot beat the male sea lion in his prime, can only wait nearby.
While the beach overlord was not paying attention, he sneaked up on the female sea lion.
Not long after the female sea lion landed on the shore, she gave birth to her cubs conceived during the last breeding season under the protection of the male sea lion.
After the cubs are born, the strong male sea lions can enjoy the benefits and mate with all the female sea lions in the "harem" to leave as many genes as possible.
When the dominant sea lions are busy mating, the cunning young sea lions will take the opportunity to steal home.
For a moment, the entire beach was green and full of vitality, and there was a Shura scene everywhere.
Yu Yiyun stayed below the water in his previous life, and he never expected that there would be such a big show on the shore, which left him wanting more.
The little fat whale had a great time, but the passing whales that were lingering in the waters near the coast were so bored that they started to complain after circling around and waiting for the sea lions to come into the water.
Yu Yiyun, whose flying skills had improved a lot, flapped his wings and flew over. He heard the big eggplant chattering while blowing bubbles.
After listening to two sentences, Yu Yiyun was surprised to realize that even if he turned into a little eagle, he could still understand whale language.
"Buzz?" Why doesn't the little sea lion go into the water?
"Coo, choo." The baby sea lions will not go into the water, they can only drink milk.
"Woo?" Why doesn't the sea lion go into the water?
"Chirp." They are happy.
“…”
Yu Yiyun suddenly fell silent.
As expected of a highly intelligent mammal, it actually understands the "happiness" of sea lions.
"Woo?" Will their happiness last?
"Coo." I don't know, they are only happy on the shore.
The killer whales cannot leave the ocean, and it is unknown how long the sea lions on the shore will be "happy".
The little fat bird hesitated for a few seconds, turned its head to look at the chaotic beach where few birds were allowed, and gave an approximate time range.
"Chi...chi chi?" About, 10 to 20 minutes?
Birds were heard singing and a large eggplant emerged from the sea.
Seeing the little sea eagle flapping its wings, circling and hovering, the killer whale's eyes showed genuine confusion.
"Chirp?" Where does the bird come from?
Another big eggplant poked its head out and told its companions that it was the young of those birds that liked to eat dead fish.
“Chirp!”
The little fat guy protested loudly!
Who likes to eat dead fish? I'm a picky eater!
"Buzz?"
The killer whale who couldn't catch the sea lion asked: Is this bird delicious?
"Chichi!" It doesn't taste good!
"Chirp! Chirp!" Look at my claws, look at my feathers! They're not tasty at all!
"Chichi!" And I don't have much meat, not enough for you to fill your teeth.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp!" You have so much flesh, fatter than any bird I have ever seen!
Yu Yiyun: “…”
I really should consider losing weight.
The fat little one made up his mind for the third time.
After chatting for a while, one of the killer whales finally realized that something was wrong.
The transient whale can't even understand the language of whales other than its own species, so why can it talk to a bird?
Yu Yiyun also felt strange at first, and thought that World Voice had made a mistake and did not leave the benefits to Hill but to herself instead.
Later, I gradually realized that the "language" of killer whales mainly relies on different tones and rhythms to express meaning.
In my previous life, I talked too much nonsense and acted as a translator for various groups of killer whales.
The tones of their voices were already deeply engraved in Yu Yiyun's mind.
“Chirp~”
The reason was too complicated to explain, so Yu Yiyun shamelessly told them: She was the smartest bird in the world, so she could speak whale language.
The curious killer whale encountered such a magical little bird for the first time, and immediately crossed it out of the "food" list, turned over its belly and "sucked" at the little fat bird.
Yu Yiyun was too familiar with this behavior. Every time they wanted to rub the little guy, they would do exactly the same thing.
Oh.
I'm tired of seeing the same tricks, how could I be...
'puff--'
The killer whale next to it surfaced and sprayed out a small fountain.
Yu Yiyun was ensnared in an instant, and flew over without any ambition, using his claws to play with the fountain gushing out of the air hole.
He wanted to play like this in his previous life!
Unfortunately, its body is too large, and every time it extends its pectoral fins, its companion's air holes are blocked tightly.
In order to please little Fatty, the killer whale deliberately controlled the rhythm and height of the fountain so that little Fatty could not catch it with his claws.
Seeing this, several killer whales nearby also produced small fountains.
Yu Yijun was so excited that she jumped up and down on the killer whales' backs, and even made the big eggplant of the ocean feel like playing whack-a-mole.
Finally having enough fun with the killer whale fountain, Yu Yiyun muttered to herself, conspiring with the killer whales in a low voice.
The killer whales gathered and surrounded the little fat whale.
After hearing his tactics, several big eggplants agreed, then dived underwater, spitting bubbles.
Yu Yiyun flapped her wings and flew back to the shore, pretending nothing had happened and continued to watch the fun, but her eyes were always on the movements on the shore, and at the same time she used her wings to gently paddle her brother and sister.
He couldn't communicate with his brothers and sisters through language.
But after living and eating together for more than two months, we still have some basic tacit understanding.
Especially during the recent flying practice, my older brothers and sisters have already mastered the secret codes.
Every time the fat little one pulled something, he was signaling the two of them to follow and assist.
Over time, Mommy and Daddy also understood the meaning of the code.
Yu Yiyun observed for a while and found a male sea lion supporting its body with its pectoral fins and hopping to the shore to look for food.
It knew that the deep ocean was very dangerous, and it did not have the energy to engage in high-intensity mating or feed its cubs, so it originally planned to find some shellfish on the shore.
Unexpectedly, the male sea lion just approached the coastline.
The bald eagle, which had been waiting to pick up opportunities and never actively attacked the sea lion in the past few days, suddenly flew over and pecked at its nose and eyes, specifically targeting the most vulnerable parts with its beak.
Sea lions are better at moving in the water and are slow to move on land, making them no match for high-speed birds of prey.
The attacked sea lion rolled and crawled frantically to avoid the attack, but was a little careless and was swept into the water by the oncoming waves.
Before it could come to its senses, the top predator guarding there had already opened its huge mouth...
The killer whales successfully caught the sea lion and excitedly dived underwater. They found a large group of fish that they did not eat and drove them to the surface of the sea, and then fanned them onto the beach with their tails.
"Buzz~"
“Chirp!”
The little fat bird picked up the biggest fish and puffed out its belly proudly.
@Tagore, who said that birds and fish are the farthest apart?
