Peregrine Falcons

The peregrines repeatedly rose up and stooped upon the eagle, knocking it to the ground and onto its face a number of times until the eagle eventually ran and took shelter beneath a mountain ash shrub. It hid long enough for the male to resume hunting and fly off. The female falcon however, perched nearby, screeching at the eagle for over 30 minutes. Eventually, the eagle took flight and quickly flew back across Yosemite Valley as the female repeatedly stooped on the eagle for at least half a mile.
