About This Image

Photo taken at the National Aviary in Pittsburgh, PA.
A huge eagle with a massive yellow bill, the Steller’s Sea Eagle population has been steadily declining in the wild due to habitat degradation, pollution, poisoning by lead shot, and over-fishing.
It is estimated that there are only around 5,000 Steller’s Sea Eagles in the wild.

Very nice angle and capture Mary. I got a few shots of him while I was there also. I couldn't believe how large he was, a giant Eagle. Nice work! Don
