A lovely big bird.

  1. Super shots but I may be wrong but it does not have the feel of a White tailed Eagle to me?

  5. I have to concur with both yourself and Mark, the top bill is to small and slender. It really is a big old chunky bill. It looks more like a kite especially the head markings. Either way great images
