This is a really nice phase to have captured Gail----the bird is almost fully into the adult stage of head and tail feathers while still retaining the juvenile plumage on wing and body.

A beautiful image Gail, love the wings and the colors on this late juvenile. I like that the wing tips are frozen here and the chocolate tipping and mottling is like the chocolate sauce on this sweet image. well done.

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the fanned tail, HA, sharpness and pale sky. Comp wise I could see a version with the eagle little higher and a little to our left but still a beauty as presented. Very well done Gail!

Gail agree with Jim maybe a tad higher in the frame, Raptor looks excellent.
