White-tailed eagle (Haliaeetus albicilla)

I was watching this young eagle sit in a tree by a lake when two crows came and harassed him. The eagle flew across the lake and disappeared. I had a feeling where he might have resorted and walked around the lake. I found him there and took this photo from a close distance.
