This afternoon just south of the Stearn's Lake on Cradleboard Trail
(Broomfield County) a great horned owl attacked an adult bald eagle
that had landed in the owl’s nest tree where another owl sat on a
nest. The eagle flew to ground near a fence & stayed there for over
an hour looking properly chastised. We think the owl might have
actually hit the eagle. Is that likely? As we were watching this, my
FOS Mourning cloak floated by. Later we watched a N. harrier patrol
the perimeter of Josh's pond, coming very close to us.
