Great picture, about a month ago I saw an eagle snatch up a little duck from Lake Paradise, just on the other side of the bridge in the historic section. Wish I had a camera and the OP’s photography skills.

Beautiful pic! I suspect this took some planning on your part or you have very quick reflexes. 👏👏

so it's 530 am and i'm awoken by an incessantly crowing crow. Going outside i see the crow harassing the hawk not 2 feet away who looks upon it with utter disdain. Only in tv.
