A large dark brown eagle perched upright on a weathered tree stump at Gauntlet Birds of Prey in Cheshire. Pale, slightly tousled feathers streak its head and neck, contrasting with layered dark brown body and wing feathers. It has a sharp yellow hooked beak, a pale yellow eye and powerful talons gripping the stump. Leather anklets are visible around its legs. Softly blurred green foliage fills the background.

Black-and-white close-up of a pelican bending its long neck into a tight curve while preening. Its head is upside down, with one eye looking towards the camera, a long bill extending across the lower left of the frame and spiky crest feathers projecting to the right. Fine feather textures stand out against a dark, softly blurred background.
