When animals leave their parents to establish their own lives, if they encounter the parents again in the wild, do they recognise each other and does this influence their behaviour?

I'm thinking of, for example, eagles that have been nurtured by their parents for many months before finally leave the nest to establish their own territory. Surely a bond has been created there, that could influence future interactions between these animals?

In domestic felines, it’s documented that daughters may share or overlap territories with the mother. Some even share a nest. This to me shows they do recognize one another, as outsiders are generally not tolerated.  How much they tolerate one another varies, but they do tend to tolerate familiar cats more. It’s not really proven yet if cats with similar DNA tend to get along better, but it’s been suggested.
