Those are juvenile Bald Eagles for sure. I'd say they are trying to drive the plane out of their hunting area and not merely following it. This could be considered harassment.
Takes, "Soaring Like Birds" to a new meaning. Very Nice. Saw the video with the Eagle as well. He looked like he didn't want the plane near his area towards the end of that one. Always remember to be careful when flying near them. Especially if you're doing this in the U.S. Peace, and Keep flying!! Love the videos.
They often follow us, whether it's a DG-1000, or a flying wing. Very few times I would have called it an attack. Usually, they just follow us, which is strange since you would think they know a lot better where to find thermals...
pretty sure that they live in sky, and they are much better on finding thermals. but if somebody already found a thermal, why to worry about to find another. they just use it :) also they wonder what is that unidentified flying object
Waiting for the mating video.

Where we fly, there are lots of birds. We even see a bald eagle once in a while. Often, the birds try to follow our gliders, which is funny to watch
