@ Peter Betts, you have already posted a pic of a Lanner Falcon.

@ harrys, there are no points for multiple sightings in this challenge.

I'm not sure this is a Tawny Eagle, with that square tail.

Tawny eagle

[Lisbeth]

When the tail is closed, it might look square, I think, but the tail looks barred (maybe it is the shade of the branch). also, the colour of the feet and the whole impression seems to exclude a tawny.

Could it be a booted eagle? Even if it does look or too dark for the pale form and too pale for the rufous form

All in all, I think that it's a booted eagle
