Juvenile Bald Eagle in Glenwood Springs, CO

Here's a bird Wendy and I saw near Glenwood Springs yesterday. I'm not clear what it is. She thought it was a vulture. I thought it might be a hawk.

Update: This is a juvenile Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus).
Update 2: The bird is molting, which accounts for his shabby appearance.
