Bald Eagles battle in the air for breakfast

March 12, 2016 by Tony Leave a Comment

Food fight! A juvenile Bald Eagle caught a fish and its luck did not go unnoticed by the other eagles in the area. After fending off two other young thieves, an adult gave chase and the pair had an amazing aerial duel over the meal, locking talons and tumbling through the air. In the end the juvy did get to keep its breakfast. They were a good ways away so these are cropped quite a bit. Absolutely amazing to witness!
