Peregrine attack
In the same cliff where the eagles nest, also a pair of peregrines are looking for a breeding site. Peregrines are very agressive and protective at their nest site. So whenever the eagles took off, the peregrines scrambled to intercept. Marvelous flight scenes!
Not a very good shot, but to see these falcons attack the much larger eagles was an impressive sight. Sadly my lens and I were too slow.
