Last summer we heard frantic shrieking from a gull, and looked out to see an eagle just taking off with one gull in its talons and the other (its mate?) chasing from above, screaming and pounding on the eagle for all it was worth. The eagle let go of its prey and tried to shake the pursuing gull by flipping its wing upward, but was unable to. The gull chased the eagle right into dense woods by our cottage, where they flapped around before leaving our sight. One of the many extraordinary sagas we get to witness here in our quiet section of Winni.
