Description
This is not a rare Eagle nevertheless the first time I have captured one, and I think done it justice, so I am very pleased..
With a total length of 25-30 in and weighing around 70 oz (2 kg), it is a huge eagle-like "buzzard" ("hawk" in American terminology).
It is rather long- and broad-winged, with a wingspan of about 70 to 80 in and the slightly tapering tail is short by comparison and colored black, with grey tips in fresh plumage. The adult has a white underside, sometimes with fine blackish stripes; its upperparts are dark grey with a blackish, brownish or bluish hue.
The feathers of the neck and the lowest dark feathers of the breast are somewhat elongated. Adults have an ash-grey-and-white zone on the wings, the silvery white seen clearly from afar.
The female is distinguished by a reddish-cinnamon hue to the upper- and underwing secondaries and is considerably larger than the male.

This is fabulous. I am amazed by the broad but relatively short tail, bullet like thick body and graceful, long wings. What an incredible shot!
