 Taken in Montgomery, Alabama, on Zoo Weekend. This eagle was being shown outdoors by a handler from the zoo's education department. The background is a painted backdrop that was quite colorful; I reduced the saturation of its reds and yellows and darkened it so it would not distract from this beautiful bird.
