We live near a lake where eagles hunt regularly and our outside cat has never been bothered. On the other hand there was a local newspaper story a few years ago of an eagle that snatched a small dog but the owner beat it off and the dog was dropped. I've personally seen an eagle eating an osprey and conversely this spring on Isle a Haut watched eagles and osprey attacking flocks of black ducks. At one point an osprey and an eagle met talons first in mid air. The osprey continued on but the eagle landed on the nearest ledge and sat for 30 minutes befor it slowly flew off. Bob PDQ 36 Peace

It ends in Somes Harbor at it's north end, an idyllic quiet harbor complete with kayakers from the surrounding state park and some bald eagles. When we were there we were concerned about the eagles making off with one of our cats. Can anyone tell us if it was a valid concern? Do eagles pose a hazard to a domestic cat?
