Juvenile Bald Eagle Attacking Adult, Hood Canal, Washington

A juvenile bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) attacks an adult along Hood Canal near Seabeck, Washington. Hundreds of bald eagles congregate in the area in the early summer to feast on migrating midshipman fish that get trapped in oyster beds during low tides. Bald eagles, however, largely get their food by stealing it from other birds -- including eagles.
