Trace one side copy, flip or rotate & paste?

In my prev post I had eagle with wings, however one side was cut off, I would like to know how I copy, flip and paste to other side?  The wing on the right side is the full wing which I want to copy the wing and put it on the left side? can this be done? if so, can someone walk me through the steps?  I figured out how to trace the ribbon and the flag, I just want to make the wings match.  I have uploaded the photo again.  I greatly appreciate any help in this matter.  I hope I am posting to the right place for pointers and help?

Thank you

  • Make a rough selection around the existing wing tips (what is missing on the other side, plus some for a smooth transition)
  • Copy to new layer
  • Layer>Transform>Flip
  • Use the perspective tool to overlay by making the existing bits match (reduce the preview opacity)
  • Use a soft brush with the eraser (or on a layer mask) to make a smooth transition
  • You'll also have to slightly adjust the lightness
Of course, the shadows will be wrong on the added bits.
