    Default 2 Lesser spotted eagles & a crow

    Shot in Sultanpur earlier this year. This was unusual behavior. Usually crows mob eagles in large numbers. However this crow perched in between these 2 eagles for a good 3-4 mns. After that 1 eagle and the crow took off.

    Shot with the Nikon D90, Nikkor 70-300mm VR, at 300mm, ISO 400, 1/1000s - F/9

    Nice to see two spotted eagles perched in the open. Was there a nest? Slight off-centered composition would be good. The single crow perched inbetween them is quite interesting. Slight noise in the background, seems it was a bit far. Thanks for sharing.

    Correction - these are Eastern Imperial Eagles and not Lesser spotted eagles.

    Yes Mrudul, they were a bit far for my 70-300mm, have still not upgraded to the 80-400mm...will be doing so shortly

    Nice to see this. Did you click this inside the park? Hopefully I will do a little bit of birding in these places this year. Haven't been to Sultanpur for a long time.

    80-400 new version? The old one was lousy.

    Yes, I shot this inside the park...off the main road track in the grassland.

    I meant the new 80-400 ED G
