• Story of the image

  Golden eagle and mockingbird are my backyard habitants. They both hunt warms, insects and small animals. The mockingbirds are protecting their territory viciously and fighting with any other birds. One morning, I saw a mockingbird fighting with a golden eagle, picking feather from the golden eagle and chasing it out of the territory. I used my Canon R5 with auto ISO setting to make sure a proper light exposure. But I missed a few shots. Finally I got this shot when birds flew towards me.
