At first I thought it was a mating ritual but then everything I read and from what I am told, it would not happen between a juvenile and mature eagle. What I do know is that this was taken in an area where the fishermen are processing their catch and they toss the remains - so the adult is carrying some sushi and it may well be aggression from the juvenile in an attempt to steal it. Either way, I was stoked to see this!
