At the entrance to the Warsaw Caves parking lot at about 2.45 pm
today. as I was drive by the entrance. (West to East)
A large bird in the size range of a Golden Eagle lifted off the road
with its back to me.
Before it turn away I noticed a yellow beak.
The standard Dark Brown and White colourations were vary visible.
Did not have time to use my camera, for a back up proof. Plus the
car behind me was tail gating me too close.
The beak was yellow.
The head was the same colour as the body.
This was what first got my first eye sight.
Wing span was close to six foot, as it lifted off road kill and
escaped into the trees.
I did not have the time to return and watch for it.
Trust some one else can can firm it.
