Saw something really neat

yesterday. An Eagle(white head et al) was attempting to catch a Red Tailed Hawk right over the farm here. He tried for about 4 or 5 minutes...actually getting a load of feathers out of him one time...but the hawk seemed a little more agile after the first flurry or two. I have never seen an eagle try to catch a hawk before.. Have seen 'em catch a goose or two. Mostly crippled geese but saw one snatch a goose right out of a flock of 10 one day flying ...but never a hawk and eagle fight. Was just something I had to share with y'all. Ever seen this happen before??
