[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I believe this to be an African Fish Eagle (but correct me if i'm wrong), sitting on the top of a tree watching. Was glad with my 1.4x extender as this gave me the oppertunity to zoom in on this beautiful bird.

Great shot Edwin,I like the composition with the bare branches leading our eyes to the eagle.His yellow eyes really stand out.I like too that the branches are the same colour as the bird, all backed by the lovely blue sky.
Tfs, regards Jean.
