  While sailing on Woods Res. Friday 3/9, My wife and I watched an Osprey take 
a fish and fly off toward its perch. It disappeared into the treeline near the 
damn. A few minutes later we heard bird alarm sounds and looked back. An adult 
Bald Eagle was chasing an Osprey. Don't know if it was the original Osprey or 
not but the fish was not present.We slowed to watched the chase which lasted 
some ten minutes. Eventually the Eagle flew away and the Osprey quickly dove 
for the trees.
