Amateur wildlife photographer Phoo Chan captured this incredible scene recently in the skies above Seabeck, Washington.
Chan told The Daily Mail that he thought the crow was trying to chase the eagle out of its territory — a behavior he’s seen before. But the eagle’s response surprised him.
“The eagle didn’t seem to mind and kept flying as if nothing happened,” he said. “I think the crow decided to land on the eagle because the eagle did not respond to its harassment, so it landed briefly and then left.” The ride lasted just seconds.
