    Its actually a juvenile bald eagle. As they age, their beak and feathers change color. The easy way to distinguish the two is that juveline bald eagles have bare legs without feathers.

    For the secret way to distingush them I’d have to say that some dickweed dumped some trash out in the open and look what birds showed up; its all bald eagles.

        No worries, Its an easy mistake to make. Where the photo is taken Golden Eagles (majestic birds) are uncommon and Bald Eagles (slightly more majestic and substantially more murderous pigeons) are very common.
