In the picture Canales was lucky to capture, the white-headed eagle just flew and tightened the gull with sharp claws. However, the hunt of the eagle is not convenient when above, another seagull is swooping down and pecking on its back in an effort to save the fellow.

Canales remarked that this was a " legendary " moment and added: "The eagle flew straight to the gull's nest and calmly grabbed the prey."

The picture of Canales was shared by the US Department of the Interior on July 15, accompanied by a description of the white-headed eagle winning an unequal battle."The seagull above gave up while the other one couldn't save himself."
