Changeable Hawk Eagle
This was quite an experience. We were driving through Pench in the late afternoon and Rohan our guide had stopped the jeep to listen to the forest. After a brief while of looking and listening we turned around and saw this Changeable Hawk eagle perched on a branch right behind us and looking at us. It continued to sit there and scan the environment for a while and flew off after some time...I've never seen a more regal bird of prey...its presence was that of an emperor!
Shot with Nikon D 3000 body, Nikkor 70-300mm VR lens at 300mm; 1/160s - F/5.6; -0.3EV and Daylight WB. A fine moment indeed. Apparently diet includes peacocks!
