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. Captured from underneath the Granville Bridge, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada ~ July 22, 2016

Lesser Scaup spend the winter farther south than any other diving duck in their genus (Aythya)—some go as far south as Central America and the Caribbean.
