The color is right, although the feathers st the end of the wings are 
different. But looking at the bird guide pic I posted I see some red on the 
head as well. Perhaps that pic is incorrectly identified? Most of the eagle 
pics don't have that much white. You could  be right. I've never seen a turkey 
vulture here, but would think there are some.

Ok, I'll do that, but I'm sending a shot of a pair of turkey vultures. Note the 
red heads also.

Go to google. Click on images. Then search bald eagle underside. Some are 
completely different, but several are a perfect match for this. Hawks aren't 
even close. I didn't look at Falcons. I probably should.

Nice raptor catch, Paul.
I can't get at my saved images at this
time and my field guide does not
show the underside of the included Bald, but I'd be surprised to find solid 
white on or under a Bald even if just
approaching maturity. With the
number I've seen in the wild along
with the couple dozen my pro friend,
Brian Shul, has displayed and those he has sent to me for comment, I
can't help but doubt the one you shot is a bald. If not, so what? Still a good
good size raptor that may be a non
typical Bald.(?)

I saw some kind of Raptor circling several hundred feet above my yard this 
afternoon. I pulled my camera off the tripod and did a handheld shot with my 
150-450 and 1.4X converter mounted — about 630 mm. Shutter speed was at 
1,000th. Turned focus manually to infinity and I think the camera locked on as 
well. But the result is less than 20% of frame. I assumed it was a hawk, but 
when I rendered it I could see if it’s no hawk i know. Matches up well to bad 
eagle underside pics on the web. Fun stuff.
