There are about 200 pairs of Aquila chrysaetos in the Carpathians. The king of heaven was observed from Baňa summit (near Ďumbier), soaring directly over me.

Re: Great.

He flew from a long distance - probably thinking I could be his prey, but then he realized, I am a human and started to soar directly over me. So the distance between us was about 80-100 meters. I'am looking forward to your shot of this king of the sky.
