Bald eagles do not get their yellow eyes, yellow beak and white head until they are about 5.
Taken in Haines, Ak in November
Thanks for the kind words
runakid - this is an awesome capture of a Juvie bald eagle!! I've been following 3 bald eagle nests since 2014& it is so special to watch from hatch thru fledge. What all of us miss who follow these cams is how they grow & change until they reach the Bald Eagle Adulthood age of 5. I'd love to see a photo series of the different age progression from fledge to adulthood - hint, hint, hint!! Thanks SO much for sharing this handsome Juvie!!
Thanks for all your kind comments.
I recognize the gravel banks of the Chilkat River. We have been going there for the past 3 years and enjoy it for the eagles and bears. This is a great shot, thanks for posting and bringing back good memories.
