During the summer these same two eagles hang out on the porch about every day like it is their own private perch. Video in Unalaska, Alaska in the Aleutian Islands by Pam Aus.

Whoa, that person is getting mighty close to something that could inflict some hurt heh.
I’m surprised one just sat there.
I imagine those eagles were looking at those cats and thinking “Dang, just a little too big to carry off and eat...”
I am wondering why one of them didn't take a cat for dinner (and I don't mean as a date).
You know the thought has crossed their minds.
Too big? I don't think so.
Well, they could of easily, so there must of been another reason to hang out, perhaps bored?
I think cats would be eagle food. They must be well fed.
I suspect the eagles view her deck as a fly-thru restaurant........
What is in the water in Alaska? There was a story about a wolf that ate some woman’s dog while she was out hiking, and her pity was for the wolf??? Now this utter jackass risks the lives of her pet cats while playing ‘Miss Eagle’ with these birds of prey? (Hey...it’s cool...he’s on our currency, isn’t he?)
There is a family of hawks who regularly visit the back deck of my neighbor, because they leave strips of meat out for them. They will in fact peck on the back sliding glass door if the meat is not there.
These eagles are not there because they like to play with the cats. They have probably been trained (fed).
There's only one likely reason, she's been feeding them..........That lady is Stupid!
As for the cats, they're not too big that they can't be jumped on and carried away...and I suspect they will be.
Yep a day or two of them not eating and those cats are flying toast.
They seem quite acclimated to her presence, I am guessing she has hand fed them a few times.
I know it’s illegal for anyone but a “Native American” to own a bald eagle feather, a huge fine I believe.
But taping and talking to one? Possibly the death penalty.
What if one of the eagles dropped a feather on her deck?
I heard the BLM has a SWAT team they've just unexpectedly freed up...
Those eagles are like checking out those choice cuts of meat and just waiting for the next big holiday dinner?

Same house, same cats... gambling with time!
The iggles are there because there is a food source there.
Why do I get the feeling that those eagles were raised with those cats??
“...They seem quite acclimated to her presence, I am guessing she has hand fed them a few times.”

Quite likely. The perching eagle screeches were of her likely saying “get off my porch and get my food to put out!”.
