Hi,
I took a photo of raptor from quite large distance in Andalucia, Spain (Sierra Nevada mountains). I didn´t watch it by a scope, so all information I have is this picture. And that is the problem - I cannot decide whether it is a Honey Buzzard or Bonelli´s Eagle. It seems ridiculous as these two raptors are very different, but the picture is of a poor quality - the birds has light belly (like Bonelli´s Eagle), but then the shape ... I simply don´t know.
I sent the picture to some people who have experience with birdwatching in Spain and the score is 2:2 , so .... is there anyone who would help me?
Thanks, Vaclav John
