Steller's Sea-eagle.
-Power line tower # 18, a couple of k's north of Fukushimagata, Niigata.
Some photos of an adult Steller's Sea-eagle as seen near Fukushimagata, Niigata. The photos are mixed-up but were taken on February 6 and today, the 19th. They aren't great photos but it's my first encounter with this species here since February, 2007. Just one or two of this species visit this area most years.

Nice one, an adult too!
Congrats on your first Steller's in Niigata! There's just zero chance of them being found in Kyushu....
Great stuff Russell, a serious looking raptor! Cheers, Robert
Russell, just looking through some of your old posts for Raptors with my 7 year old who reckons the Stellar is "pretty awesome" so if you have more shots we'd both like to have a look. Cheers, Richard
