I've also seen Bald Eagles dive at me with talons out while sharing a thermal. Sort of scary when you realize how much these bird weigh.

Eagles attack mostly around May when gliders are too close to their occupied nest. Apart for protection of their nest, they don't attack.

When the young'uns are learning to fly they're pretty protective. After a week or so everything is ok.
