Food Fight

These are a bunch of eagles in Prince Rupert, British Columbia who starting fighting over a piece of fish. The conglomerate went into a free fall to drop fast down to the fish. It was comical and deserved a shot. You have to see this to believe it - they actually did look kind of klutzy!

Great action! IMHO getting all 4 eagles in relatively sharp focus took some doing! Thanks for posting, neat behavior/action.
