The Eagle Heron Attack + 3 - (7)

Hi PhotoFriends,

Here is my 3rd Bald Eagle post! I am very glad to hear from my yesterday’s post that you will never get sick of seeing Bald Eagles

So you asked for it so I shall deliver!!

Pix 1

The other day a solitary Heron in the middle of the river was swimming with a fish. The heron was attacked by multiple eagles for a few minutes. See my thread
here These pictures are not close. The are fairly big crops but the attack was unique in that the eagles did not give up until they got the fish away from the heron. So here are a few more pictures.

Here are two of the adult Eagles circling around to attack the Blue Heron with his fish. The white dot to the right of the heron is the fish.

Pix 2

Here is one of the attacks. Talon ready to attack!

Pix 3

Here is another attack. The heron is screaming. The fish is still there.

Pix 4

Here is the actual pick up of the fish.

Here are three different shots from the weekend that show different poses. This is the same burst, just the bird moving as I track him. You can see it’s the exact same fish.

Marvelous shots, BeeBalm. Boy, that heron seemed to be doomed at first glance.
