Nature Red in Tooth and Claw 0
Ny brother has had a field and stream day with the eagles.
His wife alerted him to this sequence. He tells me that, when she called him, the eagle was “sitting on the water, like a duck” (an image I have trouble imagining, so I’ve asked him to try to catch it when he can). He could not grab the camera in time for that, but he captured this stunning sequence (the first two are not as sharp as he would wish because he was still reacting, but it’s still a stunning sequence.
He sent me some other sequences which I shall post during the coming week. As as aside, he tells that, this morning, an eagle and an osprey got into a fight, which, unfortunately, he was unable to capture: the osprey had a fish and the eagle wanted it. In an analogy to international politics, the outcome was a nice fight in which no one got the fish.
