[Photos] 2017 - Eagle's Heritage III

Look I'm very enamoured by Grey (White) Goshawks
and White-Bellied Sea Eagles.
Pretty sure the White-Bellied Sea Eagle is a juvenile,
that's nearly got all it's adult feathers.
The White Goshawk is the white morph of the Grey Goshawk.
It is not an albino.
It is the only regularly naturally occurring entirely white bird of prey in the world.

My goodness what a speedy bullet that goshawk must be in the air (and a male as well I'm guessing from the lithe build)! So much slimmer than our Northern Goshawks where, which makes sense because the bulk helps survive the cold. I really like the dark eyes as well, which make them somehow more attractive than the piercing yellow of the Northerns. (The latter always look extremely fierce and predatory, which is fitting given their nature.) The White Goshawk has the appearance of a bird of legend and myth, much like the Gyrfalcon.

The White-Bellied Sea Eagle strikes me as being quite curious, and again, so very handsome. :)
