William Branham stated that he saw a mother eagle put her wings out and that her babies hopped onto her wing and she flew with them down to the grass in the valley below and then went back up to a mountain top to watch them.  Then as a storm approached, she flew back down into the valley and took her eaglets back onto her wings and flew them to a place of safety.

This is a story that is familiar to all message believers.  But did it really happen?  Or was William Branham making up a story?

:''…You remember how that mama eagle would let them little eaglets down there and they'd turn around in them green valleys and boy they'd turn over one more one or after another after another.  And that mama would look back to there and see a great storm coming up and she would let out a scream and them little eagles would come and climb right up on her wings.  And each one of them would grab a feather in its mouth.  Oh, they were not able to face the storm.  They didn't have to.  They was on mama's back.  They're each one of them holding onto the wings and here would go mama… and mama would head right up through there and take them babies out of the tribulation period

I went to 3 ornithologists, scientists who study birds, to determine whether such behaviour had ever been seen.  All of the scientists that I contacted specialize in the study of eagles and other birds of preyt.  I will refer to the scientists by their initials rather than their full names… I don’t want them inundated by message followers telling them that the prophet couldn’t possibly be wrong.
