Observation details
perched at the top of a spruce tree, looking down, appeared to be hunting. Could not see legs. Did not see flying as it was difficult to get a photo of the bird's face due to the bird looking down and away from us and I missed it flying because I was in the camera. Habitat and behavior suggests golden rather than bald but can not completely rule out bald. Possibly has a golden nape but sun angle makes this feature hard to see.
