Photographer Captures Mid-Air Food Fight Between Eagle and Fox

Photographer Kevin Ebi witnessed something amazing in San Juan Island National Historic Park

Although impressive hunters in their own right, Bald Eagles are also known for their tendency to poach meals from other predators that have already done the leg work.

While working in San Juan Island National Historic Park, photographer Kevin Ebi witnessed a Bald Eagle swoop in to steal a rabbit from a young fox.

During its act of thievery the eagle accidentally snared the fox as well and the two tussled in mid-air before the eagle made off with the meal. Ebi documented the dramatic even in an incredible sequence of images which you can find in the video embedded below.

You can learn more about the story and see more photos from the battle on his website here. For prints, books and more amazing nature photography, check out Ebi’s work at the links below.
