African Fish Eagle

Riding thermals up high, calling out the song of Africa, sending shivers down your spine, a distinct call known throughout sub-Saharan Africa, found near large bodies of water where food is found.

Graceful large eagle with distinctive markings of white upper body and tail, a reddish brown belly, with black swooping wings.

Living on the East Coast of Southern Africa this bird will be a regular to see.

Photograph was taken on the St Lucia Lake in Northern KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Perched up high in a tree will swoop down to collect a fish for a meal, sadly I did not witness that.
