Eagle - Bulgaria (1 Viewer)

[Nikolai Kolev]

I just checked my photos from today migration above Atanasovsko lake - Bulgaria, and look closely the pictures of one eagle, flying solitary, not with other eagles. Any opinions about the species?

Hi Nikolai,

what about Greater Spotted Eagle (Aquila clanga)?
If I am not mistaken, I can count seven "fingers" on at least one visible wing, plus the bill seems to be pretty big.

Lesser Spotted or hybrid (with Greater), not possible to tell from these pics, imo. I don't see a pure GSE here.

On my side, I find a hard time to make it a pure LSE, but I guess you're right, these pics are not giving enough information.

Yes, it were indeed great if there were more pictures, but I guess these ones are the only ones?
