Hi Jeff.
These are magnificient birds, I had the privelege of photographing a captive steppe eagle a few years ago and it was huge, I wouldn't want to pick a fight with one. I think bald eagles are even bigger.
You've got a decent 'pose' with this, wings up or down work better than tight against the body. The only problem I can see though is that the image is a bit soft and mushy, I'm guessing this is a bit of a crop, it has lost detail somehow.
Also, having jesses on the leg would suggest this is a captive bird too.
