This afternoon I saw a pair of Red-tailed Hawks stage an ariel attack
on a Golden Eagle and drive it away from the canyon they were
hunting. This on the Bayview Trail just north of Glider Hill. I saw
the Eagle again about a third of a mile further south on the trail,
hunting another canyon. The Eagle looked to be about twice the size
of the hawks, it took nerve for them to attack it by diving from
above, even though they did have it outnumbered.
