Seagulls can be very agressive trying to get food, this was very brave and was riding on the sea eagle to make her drop the fish !!

Thank you for your comments.
Although the gulls can be very agressive when hungry the sea eagles dont seem to bother about them !! , it normally happends the other way !!!!
I have seen many times gulls getting fish and then the eagles seeing this from a mile of distance taking off and follow the gulls until they drop the fish stealing the fish from the gulls.
Probably this is a revenge behaviour by the gulls !!!!!!!

He is not getting food, he is getting a free taxi ride. Nice shot!
