Observation details
We had passed by here in the morning, on our way to the birding spots of Gun Galuut. Now we stopped and visited, going up into the statue and onto the viewing platform atop the equestrian statue's mane. We saw a large flock of corvids in a pasture below the statue. As we were leaving, to our astonishment, a Golden Eagle soared over, probably looking down in disgust at a captive Golden Eagle that was being posed with tourists near the base of the steps leading to the entrance of the statue. A captive vulture on a post next to the eagle was not getting any attention at all from the tourists.
