Hello all.
I've been looking at this forum for some years but this is alas my first post.
I've been to the Findhorn Valley in Inverness-shire a couple of times now and I was there yesterday. I was looking at a bird above a ridge (the bottom one in my photo) and had just come to the conclusion that it was 'just' a buzzard when the bird at the top of the photo flew into view.
I'm pretty confident it's a Golden Eagle but I thought I'd share this to see what anyone else thought? I'm sorry, I know the photo isn't great. It was taken on my iPhone, through my binoculars and then I've pinch zoomed it to take this screenshot. Given all that it's possibly not that bad!
Cheers
Dan
