White-tailed Sea Eagle

I had a few hours before catching a bus north so went a walked up Craig Dunain just on the outskirts of Inverness. Quiet birdwise, just coal tits etc then this bird appeared above me. Poor image obviously and I actually thought it a buzzard, and only when I got it on the screen I saw the shape of the tail and wing length did I see it was a WSE harassed by a buzzard rather than a buzzard harassed by a sparrowhawk! I shouldn't presume, but I would not have expected an eagle so close to Inverness.
