Agree with Kwok Jai's observations. This looks like yet another juvenile Bonelli's for this year! Its feather is broken (or molting?) and under wing pattern different from the other two juveniles that we saw.

Whilst I agree that this is Bonelli's Eagle is it not a juvenile. The pluamge is not rich enough and like most raptors, juveniles do not show active moult like this bird. I think it is a second year bird (ie hatched last year).
