As per the blog, the narrator and the photographer are Gary Wheeler.
For the original narration check the original blog above. Blogger is having a wee bit of problem these days with copy and paste so I'll give you the general idea and you can go to the link for the details. It concerns a mature Bald Eagle who is attempting to nab a duck.

But the duck, being no dope, dives into the water and comes up in a different spot just after the eagle flies by each time. This goes on for awhile--and then eventually another eagle appears and that dear readers is the scenerio in a nutshell.
