For some reason, I didn't think of juvenile bald eagle, but of course, you are right, and I've picked up another great tip from you. Width of wing check.

I particularly like the ones of the Red-winged Blackbirds.<br /><br />I think the large dark bird that the crow is chastising is a juvenile bald eagle - few other birds have such width of wing (ie the distance from leading to trailing edge). Long wingspan x wide width = big lifting area for heavy objects.<br /><br /><br />But my point is that your pictures are very good, and particularly so for those taken with poor rainy-weather lighting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
