It is going to take a lot more than just being dive bombed by a bald eagle to change Chelsea Cheeba香蕉视频直播檚 mind about the creatures.

香蕉视频直播淭he one person who loves eagles the most is attacked by one, but hey, what can I say? Love hurts,香蕉视频直播� Cheeba said.

On May 20, Cheeba was walking towards the Campbell River Home Depot when she saw the eagle in question land in a nearby tree. She then did what she always does, grabbed her phone to take a few photos.

香蕉视频直播淚 stopped like I normally do and zoomed in on my camera. I took a few pictures. I walked away, and the eagle just dive bombed me and hit me good in the back of the head,香蕉视频直播� Cheeba said. 香蕉视频直播淭hen I felt the back of my head with my left hand. I looked at my hand and it was covered in blood.香蕉视频直播�

Cheeba was helped out by a bystander, who got Cheeba into the bystander香蕉视频直播檚 car and took her to a store for first aid supplies. A member of Cheeba香蕉视频直播檚 family then came to take her to the hospital.

香蕉视频直播淚 got checked out and I got a tetanus shot,香蕉视频直播� she said. 香蕉视频直播淚t was scary when it first happened, then afterwards when my mom was taking me to the hospital we just started laughing about it.香蕉视频直播�

Cheeba thinks that the eagle likely had a nest nearby with some young and was just being protective. However, when she walks to work now she is 香蕉视频直播渁lways watching.香蕉视频直播�

Bald eagles can grow to nearly a metre in height and can weigh over six kilograms.

香蕉视频直播淭hey don香蕉视频直播檛 look that big when they香蕉视频直播檙e in the sky flying, but when you get real close to them, oh yeah,香蕉视频直播� Cheeba said. 香蕉视频直播淚f the eagle really meant business it could have done more damage, that香蕉视频直播檚 for sure.香蕉视频直播�

Despite her ordeal, she says her love for the animals hasn香蕉视频直播檛 changed, she would just prefer a bit more distance next time she sees one.
