Video Description:

Amazing slice of animal life - watch closely as an Eastern Phoebe Flycatcher flies in to check out an elk for flies for a quick meal only to have the elk accidentally hit him with the tip of his antlers. Looks like this elk wasn't too fly infested, but its not unusual for flycatchers to hang around large mammals that might be covered in flies - ergo the name "Flycatcher". Filmed with Canon SX70HS on Amaz0n at: null/2uPd2Kc
