24-JAN-2011 Gary Fairhead

Golden Eagle /Confirmed

Orleans/Ottawa

Not sure what else it could be with those markings......I was in my backyard photographing Common Redpolls and American Goldfinches when I saw this bird ...this is a huge crop and only represents 20% of the original frame.

A big thanks to pkocinski for help on the ID and to Ted for the re-confirmation :-)

Canon EOS 7D
