Summary

Description

Taken on Loch Na Keal on Mull Chartes. This was my Favourite image of the Male Eagle! Thanks for the Comments and Favourites, they are appreciated.

The white-tailed eagle is the largest UK bird of prey. It has brown body plumage with a conspicuously pale head and neck which can be almost white in older birds, and the tail feathers of adults are white. In flight it has massive long, broad wings with 'fingered' ends. Its head protrudes and it has a short, wedge-shaped tail. It went extinct in the UK during the early 20th century, due to illegal killing, and the present population has been reintroduced.
