BALD EAGLE ATTACKS LESSER CANADA GOOSE

 WE COULD HEAR THE GEESE HONKING WAY UP IN THE SKY BUT COULDN'T SEE THEM.  THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WE COULD SEE A BIRD GLIDING STRANGLY DOWN TO THE LAKE.  THEN RIGHT AFTER IT A BALD EAGLE LANDED ON IT AND STARTED PLUCKING.  BRYAN GOT ON HIS QUAD AND RACED OVER BUT THE EAGLE DEBOWLED THE GOOSE IN ON TIME AT ALL.  THIS IS THE FIRST "LESSER CANADA GOOSE" WE HAVE SEEN.  A LOT SMALLER THAN THE REGULAR CANADA GOOSE. 

 THE BIRD WAS STILL ALIVE AND SO BRYAN PUT IT OUT OF IT'S MISERY.
THE BALD EAGLE MUST HAVE BEEN CIRCLING HIGH ABOVE THE PASSING FLOCK OF GEESE HEADING NORTH AND THEN DIVED DOWN HITTING ONE HARD ENOUGH TO MAKE IT LAND. 

 AFTER BRYAN BROUGHT IT OVER TO WHERE VIKKI AND HANNAH WAITED, HE LEFT IT OUT ON THE LAKE.  THE EAGLES FINISHED IT OFF .   ATE THE WING FEATHERS AND ALL.  IN THE BELOW PHOTO LOOK FOR THE TWO PATCHES OF DOWNY FEATHERS... ALL THAT IS LEFT OF THAT POOR GOOSE.  PATCHES ARE IN SHADOW NEAR FAR SHORE.
