We probably have all experienced one of those annoying neighbours, at some time. This young eagle was quietly resting in a tree along the Bow River and from the time it spent there, had most likely eaten.
First it was the magpies pestering it and then along came a crow that appeared to take great pleasure in doing a quick dive and tweaking its head feathers. Quite a gutsy move on the part of the much smaller birds but they most likely know their limit. But really, quit picking on the "big guy".
You can definitely judge the size of the eagle by the size of the magpie which is not the smallest of the birds but dwarfed by the eagle.
