Quite the dramatic day here in West Lebanon. At about 2 pm a juvenile and a mature bald eagle repeatedly harried a large flock (100 or more) of ducks paddling along the banks of the Connecticut near Lyman Bridge (very amateurish photo of the juvenile attached). 

Not sure what kind of ducks they were, but they didn't look like mallards. If anything, they seemed entertained by the eagles.

At about the same time the largest roost of crows I've ever seen flew from the river and are now turning the sky dark in West Leb near Wilder  Dam. 

Apologies for the mediocre photo.
