Several years ago this young Bald Eagle (2nd yr.) was sitting in a large tree near our Sanibel, FL backyard, minding its own business.
When all of a sudden this Red-shouldered Hawk flies right at it, and the Bald Eagle opens its wings
and decides to get out of there. The Red-shouldered Hawk is about to attack it.
Looks like a mid-air collision. The Bald Eagle continued to fly off and the Red-shouldered Hawk left. This Red-shouldered Hawk is nesting near where the eagle was sitting and it decided it was not going to tolerate the eagle, at least not today. Lucky I had my camera nearby.
