I filmed this once at Taylor Lake in BNP. There were 2 eagles perched and they were hunting the shallow outfall of the lake during the spawn. It was teaming with cutthroat. The osprey flew in low coming from the outfall creek directly under the eagles. One eagle took flight and went after the osprey and more or less just preoccupied it. Flying with it and keeping the osprey focused on him. The other eagle took flight and climbed high above the other 2 never seeming to acknowledge the osprey. It climbed several hundred feet above the other 2 and then tucked into a dive and dove so fast. It took the osprey out of flight and they whirled together down to the lake surface while the eagle held it its talons. The osprey did not survive. It was very cool to see.
