Exquisite. So clear and sharp. That is a young one for sure, so full of life. That one is going to live a while., it looks so dominant. I absolutely love the right wing, it adds so much volume to the bird.
 
Beautiful Eagle John, I can't help but wonder if it slightly leucistic? Judging by the beak and tail it appears to be about 4 years old. Plumage does vary quite a bit, but there is a lot of white under the wings which from what I have seen is fairly abnormal...

Such a handsome young fellow. Nice shot!
Thank you all.

Thank you. I would guess about 3 to 4 years also with beak and eye. A lot of the young eagles around here show a lot of white on the under side. As you can see in this photo there is a lot of brown on top.
