Observation details

An adult circling relatively low overhead. A great view of this big brown eagle. Almost completely brown with just a hint of a very pale tail band about half-way along the tail. Always seen from below (hackles not visible) but such a leisurely view that there was no doubt about its ID. Its head was smaller than any of the multiple Bald Eagles I had seen over the last couple of days and there was not even a hint of white/pale plumage in the wings or the body as all young Bald Eagles show. It held its wings in a shallow dihedral as it soared around.
