Duck Hunting

No photo, but we just had a young Bald Eagle hunting over the cove

Shirley spotted it first
I thought it may be going after fish
Nope
Shirley had the field glasses .. it was a Bufflehead, a diving duck
The duck would dive, but the eagle "knew" it would have to surface.
After about a dozen attempts, it got it's prey

Impressive
