At the Viera Wetlands, I witnessed a Bald Eagle make a low pass over a lake which caused American Coots to scatter in all directions. The Eagle made a couple of circles around then landed on a old Palm Tree trunk.

At one point, an Osprey flew overhead and dive bombed him. The Eagle then visually and vocally expressed his displeasure with the Osprey.

Great shots, Ira, nice and clear! Yes, the classic eagle warning screech, and then the self-satisfied, regal pose, as in "there, I told him!" ;)
