I might be crazy, but I'm seeing bald eagle on this one.

Edit-yup. Totally crazy.

I agree with Raven. An eagle's head wouldn't come to a point like this, and it would be roughly as long in front of the wings as the tail is behind them.

There were some ravens in the area where he was flying, later in the day, so that makes sense.
