It seems they like the field we've spotted them in because of the large number and variety of birds available for hunting.  We've seen them eating birds - I think dove.  

The funny thing is that they like to perch in two particular trees that don't have any other trees around them.  The trees aren't far from the road, so you get a really good look at them when they're there.  One is a fairly tall pine tree but not an Australian pine.  The other tree is shorter and doesn't have any leaves.  The eagles seem to be very comfortable in this suburban location. :)  The road gets alot of traffic and there are alot of houses close by.
