Bald Eagle vs Osprey

jonh68

The other day, I spotted an immature bald eagle trying to get the fish of an osprey. It yelled out a warning cry and two other ospreys showed up. I can't show all the original pictures, but here's a link to the spread in the newspaper, although the caption is not quite right. I had to do some heavy cropping, but newsprint is more forgiving. The PDF format is not the sharpest either. I have kept all the pictures for my "portfolio".

Can you post these individual shots directly here without being in the newspaper layout?

I was taking pictures of this guy/gal



I saw this osprey nest and zoomed in and it was eating a fish.



Then I saw this a few minutes later.

good shots! It's always cool seeing different birds harass each other.
