Rome: one very assertive eyas!















It is really amazing how agressive this one eyas is. She grabs prey that Vento brings and is really intimidating towards him. This eyas is as big as her dad and he does not go into an argument with her. She almost attacks him when he brings prey. She grabs it, mantles it and torns the pieces of meat of it. Little sister is much nices and stands aside and gets nothing. That will be a very hard lesson to learn. Shy raptors do not survive.
Only when Aria brings prey the little fixen does not get her way. Aria just keeps on holding on and puts her in her place. It is great watching this behaviour of parent and offspring.
