Wow!
If you love birds, look at this guy!
Gorgeous! And though thought to be extinct is not.
A harpy eagle, Latin America’s largest eagle, and one of the largest in the world, has been sighted in a rain forest in southern Mexico, where it was believed to be locally extinct.
What a beautiful raptor!
His head and power is awesome.
I had seen one in photos through out the years, but never knew they still existed.
We should appreciate nature in all it's glory.
Had you ever seen this guy before?

That's a very unusual looking bird. It would be great if its number were to build up again.

I have yet to see this kind of eagle in my lifetime.
