The eagle
This eagle had a cormorant and was vending off the seagulls who kept coming in attacking him trying to take his prize.

Experiment
This was originally a shot with my Hasselblad of a bright blue shy and a very white cloud plus some trees. I had to shoot higher in order to avoid acrs and people.

I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

I've never seen a bald eagle prey on a cormorant. Did you actually see the kill? Interesting!
I’m not saying it did or did not, but even animals of “prey” are opportunistic feeders, scavenge or prey survival blurs all lines.
if you ever been up to Alaska, eagles are plenty...you will see them scavenge food out of trash...
Actually, I did not see the kill...I was driving that afternoon looking for something to take photos of...I seen these seagulls hovering and finally seen the eagle vending his prize...I stopped and just started shooting photos...the eagle...you can definitely tell he was getting agitated...if you go into my profile, I have a few more shots of him in there....I have soo many more photos from that day I want to edit and post....
