Tormenting the Eagle

Its been a long time since I've taken any photos or posted anything. Its winter and we are under a stay at home order for who knows how long. Luckily we are in the country and not in the big cities where case counts are escalating quickly. A second bonus of country life is occasionally we see things on the lake most people would never get a chance to see. Today the otters were tormenting an eagle on the ice by coming up in front of him or sliding by him staying just out of reach. They kept that up for quite some time. At first I thought they were after some food the eagle may have had but no, I watched him and he had nothing. The otters were just having fun at his expense.

Shot through the living room window at a great distance across the lake in light snow. The quality is therefore not that great so I did not upload any download versions.

Ballsy little creatures engaging in potentially dangerous activity for a few laughs. Sound like my kind of animals
