(Adult) eagles in-flight

Jordan dam, Moncure, NC.
Apparently, eagles sometimes stick their tongue out while flying (1-2) to dissipate body heat, since they do not have sweat glands!
Nikon D500, 300 mm PF f/4 + TC 1.4iii.
Comments and critiques very welcome.

Thank you, Frank, nimbushopper and Patty, for the feedback.
Patty, I had not seen any other bird sticking its tongue out except when eating, so had to Google it. 🙂
