Captured at the Carolina Raptor Center / Charlotte, NC.

Pictured here is a portrait of one of the Carolina Raptor Center's Golden Eagles... This fellow's name is Zlaty, meaning "golden" in Czech. Zlaty has been with the CRC since his placement back in 1985.

At the time of shot, Zlaty was focusing in on his next meal, and wasn't about to be distracted by any nearby photographers. ;)
