The Eagle Show with @biganimalencounters . Never before have I seen anything quite on the scale of “The Eagle Show” which I witnessed a few days ago off of Vancouver Island. Once a day in a secret passage two currents collide creating a natural phenomenon of epic proportions. One current pushes the other current up from the bottom with such force that any small fish in the area is rocketed up to the surface, then held there unable to go back down. Hundreds of bald eagles have caught wind of the phenomenon, and essentially form an eaglenado of roughly 200 birds for less than an hour of intense feeding right around tide change. Other animals including giant lingcod also take part in the daily feast. I snagged a few shots of the eagles snagging fish, including this one. If you are ever looking for something special and unique while visiting Vancouver Island definitely check out @biganimalencounters . Follow @williamdrumm
