Question What kind of eagle is this?

That's not the common video of an eagle dropping the goat to its death, but rather a more interesting one!

What species is that eagle?

Looks like a Golden Eagle, presumably a falconer's bird.

This is a fragment of the series "El hombre y la tierra".
It was filmed at the 1970 in Spain, and obviously it is a specimen of golden eagle falconry.
It is one of the best series I've seen in my life! Strongly recommended!
