365 Project, Day 172
Here is my day 172 submission to my 365Project:
The eagle and bird drama continues daily here in the Victoria Harbour! Today I snapped this photo of this adult bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) being chased by a crow (Corvus caurinus). This brave little guy was in pursuit of this eagle as many other birds will do with birds of prey.
Bald Eagles come and steal chicks from other bird's nests and will even attack adult crows and gulls and eat them (check out photos of a gull taken by an eagle in my earlier post from April 11). It's not unheard of an eagle flipping over in the air mid-flight to turn on these birds and grab them out of the air so the crows and gull are really taking on a great risk chasing these eagles!
