    1. Reviewed by Allen Fish    May 16, 2005

    Action: changed name from "Aquila chrysaetos" to "Haliaeetus leucocephalus "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "Although the camera angle obscures the shape of the head and bill, the obviously blackish cere makes this bird a juvenile Bald, not a Golden, which would have a yellow cere at any age."
