Once again - a fantastic series. I wonder how often that many bird interactions happen in such a short time.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff once again Tony.
ReplyDeleteHi Mick: I've not seen so many clear interactions in such short time before. Many smaller birds will rise to challenge raptors and others, such as crows. Having the eagle chasing a fish so close to where the storks were stalking the shallows was the great bonus. Only regret is having to jump out of car and having to handhold camera, with all the action more than 50 metres on other side of barbed wire fence.
ReplyDeleteThank you Duncan. BTW, admired your moving recent journey through the years.
Great series of events Tony. Shows that size doesn't matter in the bird world.
ReplyDeleteSpecially if the little 'un is black and white!
ReplyDeleteNice series of photos Tony and you well captured! Whenever I visit your blog I get an overpowering urge to purchase a quality SLR camera!
