| A bald eagle swoops in to take a fish away from a great blue heron at Plat I Reservoir near Sutherlin in southwestern Oregon on Tuesday, Nov. 23, 2021. |
 |
| Bald eagles get much of their food from scavenging and stealing from other birds. American historical figure Benjamin Franklin once said in a letter to his daughter, the “bald eagle...is a bird of bad moral character. He does not get his living honestly…[he] is too lazy to fish for himself.” |
 |
| The eagle takes to the air after eating the fish. |
 |
| With part of the fish in one talon the eagle struts over to get a drink of water. |
 |
| Before the eagle swooped in the heron had the fish speared on its lower beak. |
