When I was on the island in BC, I was escorted by a couple of Eagles up twisted Tamarac hill. My 94 Sonoma had an eagle escort halfway there with one. They were so close I could hear the flapping of those wings. Which their span was wider than my truck.
To have his mate continue the other half. Dinosaurs came to mind.
Awesome, seems so small a word to describe them. I'll never forget it.
