Eagle being harassed by three ravens, quite near houses. Sorry about poor photos, the birds were high up and it was nearly dark.

Looks more like a Wedge-tail to me.

Thanks, sorry we could not get a better shot or see it clearly. It was certainly big - for size comparison, the birds mobbing it (first and third photos) were definitely ravens, as we heard them cawing and they landed in the tree in the second photo when the eagle flew off towards the top of Red Hill.
