I could use help identifying this bird. Looks like it might be an immature bald eagle? I was hoping it was a Golden Eagle but don't think so based on a bit of research.
Photo was take about 80 km south of Jasper, Alberta, Canada on the Icefield Parkway (route 93) at a rest stop on Friday, July 25, 2014.
Hi Bob, welcome to BPN!! Your thread(s) were held in moderation as the system does that to new members' first few posts as an anti-spam filter. The amount of white shown on this individual would indeed indicate a juvenile Bald Eagle (the juvenile Golden Eagles also have some white - but much less).
