Serpent Eagle

Shot this Serpent Eagle at Kabini this morning, missed on the kill. By the time we reached the spot this eagle had made a kill of a snake & had finished feasting on it.

Lovely light... I like the Muhammed Ali Sucker Punch Pose... I would give some more space below and move the bird a bit to the right. I like the details in the image. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely shot. The underparts are well lit. Would like the bird to be in the right side of the frame. TFS

Nice pose and perch. The use of f8 is nice. Wish you had got it with the snake :D. You soon will :).

I agree with the previous comments. Less space at the right would have been better. Lets wait for the Crested Serpent Eagle with snake in its talons.

Cheers,

I also suggest cropping the highlights at the top, but thanks for sharing!
