In the American Camp prairie above South Beach on San Juan Island, sightings of bunnies, foxes and Bald Eagles are quite common. In May of this year though, visitors were treated to a spectacular battle, when a young fox captured a bunny and a Bald Eagle swept in to steal said bunny and ended up carrying bunny and fox 20 feet in the air. Just at that moment Kevin Ebi had his camera ready to take the above breathtaking photograph.
Kevin is a professional nature photographer, whose work has appeared in numerous publications, including National Geographic, National Wildlife, Smithsonian, Outdoor Photographer, and Lonely Planet guides. His amazing work is available for licensing and as fine-art prints. Check out his complete “Battle in the Sky” photo series on his Wilderness Blog.
