A Bald Eagle scratching it's beak looking like the evil witch in "The Wizard of Oz".
Notice the greyed out eye. (Which I think makes it look more evil).
"To keep their vision sharp, bald eagles clean their eyes with the help of an inner eyelid called nictitating membrane. Besides protection, the membrane keeps the eye moist and clean of dust. It slides horizontally from left to right every three to four seconds. And, by being transparent, the eagle never loses sight of the prey even when the membrane is drawn across the eye." - http://www.mikephoto.com/bald-eagle-nictitating-membrane/
Taken at the Little Qualicum River Estuary on Vancouver Island.
