Canadian Rockies through the Lens of a Smartphone
An assortment of photos taken in and around Canmore, Alberta. Late last April. Going through those photos taken I noticed this conspicuous bird flying by. Not sure what kind of bird it is, but maybe @keithboone might know? Captured with my Huawei P20 pro Smartphone.

I'm going to guess the bird is a crow. It's either raven or crow.....i find it difficult to tell the two apart. They're very similar & both found in the Rockies! Always an upvote when I see pics of these precious and majestic mountains 🖤
Yeah, I’m not really familiar enough with birds like @keithboone. I’d like to think it was an eagle, but I really don’t know.
Lol, not an eagle! Nice guess though 😉
Your brain just knows all the mountains! That's an amazing gift too.
amazing pictures!
Thanks!
Beautiful view

Thank you!
It's a great shot, but I can't identify the bird... my first thought was an eagle but the shape of the head doesn't look right. It could be though... the wings and tail have the right shape. Was it large, @daveks? Maybe it's a crow?
Honestly Keith, I don’t remember even seeing the bird at the time of the photo! Just saw it for the first time yesterday as I was selecting pics to post. It sort of does look on the large side though.
Whatever the bird was, you captured some great photos!
