gathering of Bald Eagles at the Hood Canal

 I wonder what this mature eagle had to say to the group.

I watched as a mature bald eagle lost a fish to another eagle while in flight.  Then, I heard the victim screeching in typical eagle discourse and then watched six eagles land along the shore with the muggee in the center.  This eagle vocalized a while and then the others watched as it flew off-dipping to the water just after liftoff to snatch another fish and fly of to its nest with the snack.

Watching these magnificent birds interact causes one to think of possible human parallels but I wonder what they were really saying.  What do you think?
