    Need Help with this Eagle

    in Identification problems

    Passing over my home today heading towards RAKWS (I'm guessing). As the bird canted and was lit underneath the wing feathers (Both secondaries and primaries) shone whitish.

    Hi Howard,

    This one has an interesting colouration, but it's a Greater Spotted Eagle for me!

    Definitely not an Eastern Imperial Eagle!

    Greetings

    Peter
