Rather than do their own fishing, Bald Eagles often go after other creatures’ catches. A Bald Eagle will harass a hunting Osprey until the smaller raptor drops its prey in midair, where the eagle swoops it up. A Bald Eagle may even snatch a fish directly out of an Osprey’s talons. Fishing mammals (even people sometimes) can also lose prey to Bald Eagle piracy.

Lights, camera and action on Granville Island last night. Home to performing arts theatres, art galleries, a marina, a boutique hotel, dining, shopping but most well known for it's large Public Market. A great place for the romantic at heart.

A moonlit, lakeside, campfire under the cover of coniferous trees and the soft green glow of the Northern Lights. You can't get anymore Canadian than this... canoe, lumber jacket, beer and all. I'm lucky to live in one of the most beautiful places on earth, British Columbia. ~ Captured at Watch Lake in the South Cariboo Region of B.C. ~ October 3, 2015
