[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) is one of the best known birds of prey in the Northern Hemisphere. Like all eagles, it belongs to the family Accipitridae. Once distributed across North America, Europe and Asia, it has disappeared from many of the more heavily populated areas.

The Golden Eagle is one of twelve species of large predominantly dark-coloured eagles in the genus Aquila found worldwide; a large brown bird of prey, it has a wingspan averaging over 2 m (7 ft) and up to 1m (3 ft) in body length.

Falconers' club exhibition near Bratislava.

Hi Lenka

This is a splendid portrait from you of this wonderful golden eagle that really seems like it's going to take of any second now.
The look in its eyes is just fantastic and the light falling on it is also terrific.
The details you present him with are impressive and very sharp while the bokeh in the BG - given by the spot-on DOF - is a pleasure.
All-in-all: a wonderful work!

Bravo and TF
