Fantastic shot.
Don'tr know why those blcak birds are so aggressive. It is often to see them to chase larger predators. I have seen many times crows chasing hawks.

Amazing shot. Excellent focus, exposure and timing. These attacks happen very fast. I have witnessed RWBB attacking RTH, Eastern Kingbird attacking RTH and RTH attacking Bald Eagle. In all these successful attacks, the smaller bird actually landed on the back or head of the bigger one and pulled a feather. None of the photos is of publishable quality because of the severe crop. I did not think that it was possible to get such an excellent shot of an attack. Thanks for proving me wrong. Simply amazing.

Excellent action shot of both birds Jim. They are fiesty and fearless little birds aren't they.
