  there’s some freaky perspective shit going on there. They’re big. but they’re not economy car big.

    The wingsman can easily be 8 to 9 ft if it’s female

      Look at the first picture, wings aren’t spread. The largest baldies are recorded as having 8 foot wingspans- in alaska. They tend to be smaller closer to the equator.

      For comparison, if that’s a Hyundai Elantra behind it, it’s 15 feet long. (Close enough for 4 doors whatever it is.)

    Yeah the bird is on a flat roof maybe a garage or something similar on the same height or slightly below the window

    Yeah whatever surface it’s on, it’s slightly elevated. It’s a big bird but there’s some optical illusion going on.

    Moped big at most, since we’re measuring in vehicles.

  Please correct me if I’m wrong…but I’m fairly certain that’s a vulture.

    Seems like an eagle to me. At least in North America, Bald eagles can be considerably larger than vultures. Oh and baldies are also carrion eaters.

      Does the US have unusually small vultures? Mexican vultures are famous, and much larger than a bald eagle, but even here in Brazil our vultures are about the size of a bald eagle.

  Thought the title said “Magafauna”, which also works

    Well, no, not really. Back during the 2016 election don poorleon did a photoshoot with a bald eagle and the bird attacked him. I still love the pure symbolism there, the symbol of American democracy considered him a threat.
