Sorry, I missed the last sentence, but I did figure the same thing regarding the cropping. I also figured you just left it to show the possibility of how to expand the entire image.
Regarding what you feel is an apparent "smudge" to the right of the eagle's wing, I saw that as well, but it's from the original photo. I think it is something in the distance, perhaps a buoy as it casts a slight shadow on the water. That's why I kept it and worked around it. If it is a smudge, that is something I would have expected the OP to remove before posting the original.
Finally, I gave all the written instructions and tools that I used everything else is a creative process that the photographer must figure out. Something that suits their style and taste. There is no set order for anything. The only thing that is a finite with me is expanding the canvas, everything after that is a creative process and changes constantly.
I probably could have written 20 paragraphs regarding what I did, but wouldn't make any sense to anyone but me.

I would say re-crop the original to extend the borders... that's the only way I know of.

Another good reason to use Lightroom. You can crop as tight as you want, but always go back and uncrop, since LR is nondestructive.

Also doable in PS, don't delete cropped pixels.

While I think others have got good results, I think this is a much easier method to expand the edges of your Eagle photo.
