This eagle knocked the goose out of the sky as it took off, then rapidly devoured it.

Another one of the great hunters, not like those sissy baldies.

This was likely a quick kill as the talon's on these guys are formidable... and a difficult bird to photograph at any distance... This is a spectacular image! V

Wow, Hal, and you were right there to catch the action. I had no idea a Golden Eagle would take down a large goose like that. Great shot. ~
