Rockland County, NY — A breathtaking wildlife moment was captured high above Rockland County skies as a Bald Eagle in flight, gripping what appears to be either an eel or snake, was photographed with an Eastern Kingbird perched boldly on its head—seemingly hitching a ride.

The incredible series of photos were taken by Rockland-based wildlife photographer Owey Cramsie Jr., known for his sharp eye and timing. The images have quickly gained attention across social media and local nature groups for their dramatic and rare composition.

Experts say the Eastern Kingbird is known for its bold behavior, often seen defending its territory by aggressively mobbing much larger birds like hawks and eagles. In this case, the kingbird appears to be confronting or even catching a lift on the eagle, adding to the surreal nature of the scene.

This rare sighting underscores the rich biodiversity of Rockland County and the importance of protecting local habitats that support majestic wildlife like the American Bald Eagle, which has made a notable comeback in the region in recent years. Cramsie’s photographs serve not only as artistic marvels but also as a testament to the power of conservation, patience, and the beauty of nature in our own backyard.
