Joe the
Elder adds--good stuff- a few years ago during a western roff clave we saw
an eagle knock a duck out of the sky--then fly down and fetch it out of the
water and then fly off with a big meal !

Truely amazing pictures! Every bird and animal has to eat, it's part of
Mother Nature's master plan. Therefore, I can't fault them for taking
the trout. I'm sure they also eat their share of suckers, chubs, and
whatever else is catchable at the time.

Great photos!

We have several Osprey and a family of Bald eagles (every now and then a
Golden eagle will show up) on our lake. Is great fun to watch them fish
throughout the spring and summer. They mostly just take fish, however I have
watched them take ducklings on two occasions, once when we had a family up
for a BBQ, the kids had just been down feeding a momma duck and her babies
(which I normally don't allow, since they become a problem) shortly after
they finished, a Bald eagle came down and snatched up a duckling, off it
went cheep, cheep... Earlier they thought the eagles were so neat, after the
snatching, they didn't like eagles anymore. It was pretty funny.

As someone else mentioned, the Osprey will try and gang up on the eagles if
they are by themselves, If there are two eagles together fishing, the Osprey
stay away. It's odd, smaller birds, Osprey, and Black birds (crows) will all
harass the bald eagles, I've never really understood why?

"It was pretty funny".

The death of an animal is 'funny'?

You might want to re-read what he wrote. What was funny was that
the folks watching the eagles thought they were neat until one of them
(the eagles, not the people) snatched a duckling.

So what is your point in joining this thread with that comment?


Chuck Vance (hey, it's not like he advocated that the eagle
practice C'n'R)
