Alright, so I'm a pretty skeptical person but I thought I should post what happened to me:

I was walking back to my parents home, in the suburbs, outside of Philly. We live in a kindof park almost. It's slightly wooded, and so on. I was a kid, at the time. I think I had taken out the trash and was walking back.

Then I saw it land, a large bird. I thought it was an eagle...outside of philly lol. But it looked completely brown, yet larger than a hawk. It landed on my brother's portion of the large house. It dismissed it.....which is the thing that kills me. Considering I could've been virtually right next to it have I looked out my brother's window.

So this has been bothering my lately. It would be great if someone here could offer advice. I'm pretty convinced it's a....un-normal bird. In fact if someone has pictures of something like this they could share, I'd be of most gratitude.

Thanks!!!

What makes you think that this bird was somehow "un-normal"? Just the behavior it exhibited by landing on/near your house? Because if that is it, I wouldn't worry; birds adapt to man-made surroundings quite well. It probably thinks of the house as a short, squat, oddly-shaped tree...

It might help if you could provide a more detailed description of the bird - or locate a picture of it online at sites like this one, or in a common bird-watching book, some of which you might be able to find at your local library.

In any case, I doubt this particular bird is anything to worry about.

It may have been a golden eagle - large, with no distinguishable markings aside from a brownish gold coat of feathers.

Remarkable birds!
