Unfortunately I don't find eagles very .. interesting, or even attractive. Where I live, they are nothing but menaces to society, as well as nasty as they eat their way through garbage cans all over town.
However, I can say that this is a great shot. It truly shows how interesting an Eagle can be, versus what they are where I am from. The crispness of the feathers, I think, is what draws me to it. As though he were posing for you.
