--001a1134a5f8ef6f3d04f54a3047 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Now I may be one to blurt out a wrong ID from an adrenaline rush in the field, but I'd like to think that if I actually *report* a good bird, it has been with due consideration. Yesterday, over my own land, an eagle flew over. Not a big deal, I provide carcasses in the winter for them. It was not high, perhaps 3x treetop height. It was fairly dark, with white, but not on the head. When I clued in (about 17 microseconds later), I had about a one-two second view before it disappeared beyond the trees. However, there was white at the base of the tail, and only one white patch near the crook of the wings on either side...classic for immature Golden. I'm not 100% on this, but I figure I'd send out an alert anyway, just in case anyone was in the area. I picked up extra carcasses from the fur buyer in Pictou...will keep you posted if there's any more sign. Randy _________________________________ RF Lauff Way in the boonies of Antigonish County, NS.
