Those are quite incredible to see in such detail!

Oh my those look like something not to tangle with. We have the red headed version. I love to see them soar overhead. And their wingspan is enormous.

Such power in those talons, Most excellent detail.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond the African Fish Eagle is an amazing bird. It's call is so distinctive and I love how it throws it's head back when it calls irrespective whether stationary or in flight. There are quite a few pairs living in our valley.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Coda Falconry at Waltham Abbey. They are fantastic! Hubby's 60th gift from the Teenager and now the Teenager wants it for a gift for himself too! Can't blame him, the day was amazing.

@casablanca I've been very subtle (!) and said I'd like a photo experience voucher for joint Christmas and birthday pleeeaaasssse!!
August 24th, 2020  
@salza oh Sally to see them in the wild must be such a privilege!! I've seen European White Tailed Sea Eagles in Norway which was fantastic, but at a distance!!
August 24th, 2020  
@30pics4jackiesdiamond So subtle! Are you sure they will get the hint?? :)
