    Reminds me of one of those old busts of Roman Emperors. Powerful and regal. Beautiful detail of its head feathers. Thanks for sharing.

    This certainly exemplifies the term ‘eagle eye’! I still remember the first bald eagle I saw in the wild, and all these years later, I still get that same rush whenever I see one. Amazing bird–wonderful photo. What a portrait!

    I’ve always heard that the ‘bald’ comes from Old English–piebald refers to white markings. This particular fellow looks like a junkyard dog–what amazing character in this marvelous close-up!
