Image Details:

A Bald Eagle being harrassed by a Common Raven. While it is common to see small birds mobbing larger birds, the raven is the only bird that will actually use it's sharp beak to peck at an eagle. Lucky for the raven, the eagle pretty much avoids a fight, even though when it comes to size, speed, strength, & predatory instincts, it has the advantage.
