The footage opens with E23 on the nest at sunrise from the 360 cam looking for nestovers early in the morning. E23 is getting dive bombed and goes to the veranda tip with a piece of nestover nesting in its beak, and back to nest and veranda and bouncy pine branch before flying off. E23 is then back on the inner limb and the birds continue to dive bomb. E23 flies out and around to the nest, then to the office oak. E23 tries it again and returns to the attic and the birds are relentless! E tries hopping branches trying to get away from them and then flies off north and soars the skies of the pasture and back to the attic with a squee.

E23 continues to fly off the attic and the cam op finds E in a tall pine across the street. An hour later, E returns to the nest and attic! Whew! There are several small birds that will dive bomb the eagles - mockingbirds, Shrikes, grackles & crows mostly and these birds have nests in the area and view it as a territorial intrusion. E23 will have to learn to deal with them just like M15 & F23 have.
