I remember when a pet buzzard or something escaped from Redhouse area and I disturbed its hiding place. Shat myself.

I am sure it was a european eagle owl. Lived over there around that time. Was on the loose for a few weeks.

Patch the dog before his ordeal with the bird.

How the hell did he teach that dog to take selfies ? Amazing.

Aye thats weird. Dog has been taken to a UFO, had it's mind replaced, or flashed with a custom firmware, then placed back on earth imo.

It'll all come out in the wash.

F*cking hope not as I don't live that far from the wash

How come patch was not injured?

The mystery bird must have gently dropped him off at his owners mates.

So did Patch have talon marks on him?

I am going for a lost Condor, seeing as it is made up it is irrelevant.

Given it was a brown bird with white wing tips I'm going for a Lost Mag on her way back from the pub after a session the night before (the brown being gravy stains and white bits splashes of jizz).

The Eurasian Eagle Owl can easily pick up a small dog but, as mentioned in the article, if one had escaped we would expect to know. The other thing to consider in this, admittedly tall story, is that both the Tyne & Wear are used as navigation points for migrating birds of prey like Osprey. However an Osprey isn’t really big enough to pick a dog up and the only birds big enough in the UK (Golden Eagle and White Tailed Sea Eagle) are both non-migratory. The fact that everyone was safe and sound and home in time for tea makes it all sound like bullshit to me.

There was an article about the Eagle owl on the telly a couple of years ago. They reckoned the birds were naturally migrating west across Europe and speculated that they were already in the uk. They had plenty of (unconfirmed) sightings in North Yorkshire.

For a moment, I thought this might be the same mystery bird who knocks on people’s doors in her knickers who has now turned to dog theft.

Why has that bird got people’s doors in her knickers ... all very very strange.
