5DmkIII, f8, 1/1250 sec, ISO 800, 500mm+2XTC , window mount. Cropped for composition, selective tonal contrast applied to the bird, some cloning applied to the back of its head to correct a shadowed area.

Reason: Added, "window mount".
John, nice image, nice BG, colors, I would remove the white feathers on the tip of its beak though.
Would prefer a bit of a tighter crop, and loose some of the leaves on the left.
John....I like the sharpness in you image ( esp those claws). You also did a nice job placing the eagle in the bg framing him nicely with the blue sky. I agree with Tim about the feathers on his beak. The leaves don't really bother me
Thank you all for your comments.
Looking closer at "the feathers on his beak", I believe they are neck feathers sticking out and look like they are on the beak. Never the less, I agree, and I will remove them.
