Osprey dive bombing Bald Eagle

While fishing on Paulina Lake in Oregon, I observed a Bald Eagle in a tree and starting taking photos. While taking pictures, an Osprey arrived on the scene and began harassing the Bald Eagle by dive bombing it in its perch resulting in the Bald Eagle becoming rather agitated.
