Regarding my last post:
If anybody wants to critique it, here is my explanation:
-Birds have way WAY more flexible necks than mammals so I think it would have been plausible for Golbeak to swerve around that quick.
-Bird bones, especially the limb bones, are hollow, and if a golden eagle's beak can crack something as dense as a rabbit's vertebra, it certainly can break a medium-sized bird's leg.
-Fangs mentioned how Lightning targeted the eagle's body and head so I was assuming the falcon was on Goldbeak's upper body/lower neck which is very close to the head, proving that the reach is possible, and because of all that chaos from the eagle shaking, it would be quite the impossible for the falcon to stay perfectly balanced.
