Step 2: Draw its fluffy head that appears rounded with few spikes  

Step 3: Create its neck, which is again fluffy with spikes.  

Step 4: Draw its feather on the body with a slanting line on the right side.

Step 5: Complete the first layer of feathers using a series of tiny U's.

Step 6: Make another layer of feathers just like the above.

Step 7: Draw its third layer of wings, with long, narrow finger-like shapes.

Step 8: Complete the whole layer using some tiny U's, followed by a small vertical line that goes upwards.

Step 9: Draw a curved line below the neck.

Step 10: Between the curved line and layer of feathers, add a U-like design with tiny bumps, which appears like a sac.

Step 11: Below it, draw a rounded square with a sharp oval inside at the middle of the extreme right side. This is the eagle's right leg

Step 14: Create its first layer of left-side wing just like the right side, but shorter.

Step 17: Create its left leg below a wide sac.

Step 18: Include feather patterns for the third layer on the right side, using vertical lines.

Step 19: Add vertical lines across the third layer of wings on the left side too.

Step 20: On the tail, don’t forget to give feather patterns using vertical lines.
