A smashing little eagle. Always showbiz. Crashing, bashing, posing. A truly fabulous subject to shoot. Although a 'true eagle' (ie in the same family as the Golden Eagle), it behaves much more like a hawk. Coming in low and fast and then stabbing its prey repeatedly with its talons to dispatch it. Highly agressive, this bird is a favourite amoung photographers. It's easy to photograph from hides in Spain.
