I’ve seen crows harassing hawks and eagles, but I’d never seen a crow being chased off by another bird until this past Friday at Huntley Meadows Park, when I witnessed a Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) flying after what appeared to be a crow. After the heron caught up and forced the crow to depart, the heron appeared to be squawking a few words of warning not to return.

Cool shots, Mike. My wife recently watched a crow chase a hawk out of our neighborhood. Gutsy little guy, but maybe protecting a nest.
Amazing capture!
Tag, you’re it!
Hmmm… heron rookery close by?
I wondered the same thing. The heron had been roosting in a tree.
