Juvenile White Bellied Sea Eagles

Was down at Collie River at Eaton checking on couple of Urban Ospreys when I decided on impulse to head up to Leschenault inlet. Glad I did as I stumbled across a couple of Juve Sea Eagles which I hardly see around Bunbury. Unfortunately they were just little far away for my 300 mm lens which was a pity as they were putting on bit of a show plus a turf war with the gulls

Nice find Laza, and you got them really good despite the distance. Thanks for posting the pics.

It occurs to me that around here I have never seen gulls harassing the local sea eagles, the ravens do that job here for sea eagles and most other raptors.

Interesting WD

Here in Bunbury Ive seen Gulls , Ravens and Magpies harass Ospreys, Kites, Wedge tail Eagles and Sea Eagles.

I also saw once and it was quite a spectacle a Wedge Tail Eagle quite a distance up being buzzed by a Willy wagtail.

Despite the height you could hear the fiesty little black braveheart chirpping incessantly away :)

Dont take life too seriously, it never ends well

Brave little wagtail taking on the wedge tail eagle!!

Most unusual ones i have seen were about 10 or so rainbow lorrikeets hassling a brown goshawk.
