Teasing a Golden Eagle — Suicidal Gull?
The eagle was just sitting there, it landed and then took a little bath, I think it was just drying off in the breeze. The island was covered with gulls, but they all went to the far end when this fellow showed up. So he's sitting there, and this crazy seagull takes a huge dive at him, I suppose to drive him off. The eagle kind of flapped those huge wings at it, but otherwise didn't bother to stir itself. Not exactly intimidated. 😊 Still, I don't think this particular gull is going to live very long taking risks like this one...
