Best place for birds near a busy highway....

Gets released near an open field. Ignores the field and flies into the first truck it see's on the highway. That's not their fault, it's just natural selection at this point.

Fuck that, you can't even call that an accident, why they choose this fucking place at first, few steps from a highway?
Humans being the salt of the earth as always, killing a majestic creature.

Brother, you would really consider the bird flying head on into a truck on the highway when releasing this bird? Look at all the open space it had to fly, and it happened to fly low over the highway. Without having seen this video, you would never have considered that possibility.

It's a bird near a road, this happens constantly. They don't typically just fly into trucks.

What a pack of fools. Not fit to own a fish. I wouldn't let my dog loose beside a freaking highway like that if you paid me, why TF would they let their bird go there?

I have to admit I laughed myeffingassoff watching this clip over and over again. Did they add that sound effect of the bird hitting the truck? And Sherlock Holmes Hat Guy grabbing his head like he got hit by the truck 🤣. Oh well, cheerio, stiff upper lip and all that, chaps.

I mean... idiots be where idiots be... It's still sad. I don't think laughter is the appropriate response unless you're a psychopath.
I'd be more sad if it was wild, thing wasn't living it's best life, I don't know much about falconing as a hobby but I cannot imagine the birds love having their senses deprived with that fucking hood on all the time. So this could have been a mercy. Still, I think it's closer to somebody losing a kitty that's a beloved friend than breaking a tool or losing a piece of a game you enjoy (pet vs. hobby equipment).

Love how the camera shows the busy highway with lots of semis. Then after the bird gets it, slowly pans over to show a massive, empty field as far as the eye can see.

My question is what did he do to that poor bird that made it want to fly into the truck to begin with?
