I'm just not sure what I'm looking at here - there are two white-bellied sea eagles, but is the third a wedge-tailed eagle attacking them, or a young white-bellied sea eagle (although it seems much larger, and the first picture does not look friendly)? Happy to split into two sightings if two different birds.

Thank you - they were majestic, sweeping around the point. Glad the big one was a juvenile
