2012_2712 Golden Eagle
I know they have a huge wingspan, but still tend to zoom in too close when tracking eagles. In this instance, I tracked a Golden Eagle coming off a post, and all frames where its wings were outstretched ended up clipping at least one wing. Luckily, the two or three frames in which the wings were not fully extended were sharp. I keep thinking that eventually I will learn how to do this right :-)
More luck: a Golden Eagle pair have been hanging around, not far from the village, since last winter. I don't know where they are nesting, but I do know approximately where to look for them. They are huge, amazing, and beautiful.
