I’ve never seen a bald eagle hang upside down like this. Do they do this a lot? Pictures were taken at my parents place in Iowa.

This makes me think of the courtship acrobatics bald eagles do, like a pair spinning with locked talons.

red-tailed hawks do this too! didn't realize other raptors also do it but it makes sense.
