:''…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.
