I'm not even half an expert, so I don't know. I expect that number one, we have no gigantic eagles on earth with which we could compare, number two Mt. Doom really hadn't gotten going yet, and number three, birds are very skilled in navigating the skies, and would be able to snatch the hobbits and get out without any trouble.
