It's not just birds of a feather that flock together. 虽说鸟以类聚,但有时并非如此。 A crow has been photographed hitching a very rare mid-flight lift on the back of a bald eagle. 照片里,一只乌鸦站在飞行中的白头海雕的背上搭顺风车。 The much larger bird of prey was hunting for a snack in the skies over Seabeck, Washington, when the cheeky crow spied an opportunity. 这只比乌鸦大得多的猛禽正在华盛顿州塞贝克上空觅食,而那只厚脸皮的乌鸦发现了一个机会。 The encounter lasted just a few seconds before the birds parted and went their separate ways. 两只鸟儿的相遇只延续了数秒就彼此分道扬镳。 The chance meeting was captured by amateur photographer Phoo Chan, 50. 50岁的业余摄影师Phoo Chan拍下了它们的偶遇。 'I was photographing a bald eagle flying around hunting for an early meal when suddenly the crow approached the eagle from behind,' he said. 他说:“我当时正在拍摄一只盘旋着寻找早餐的白头海雕,突然间,一只乌鸦从后面接近了它。” 'At first I thought the crow was going to chase away the eagle. “开始我以为这只乌鸦想要赶走白头海雕。” 'I have seen crows harassing a hawk by swooping back and forth in order to drive it away from their territory. I was completely awed to see the crow actually land on the back of the flying eagle. |
