I don't know anything about your color variations, but near me they say if the chest isn't white it's not a red tail.
Lovely photos.

I think that your friend got it right...this is most likely a "dark" juvenile, I think that the "dark morph" adult sports a red tail.
Great photos, lots of identifiable details.

Thanks for looking and the compliment imagemeister. I hope to have some Bald Eagle shots soon. They are building their nest on a nearby lake.
