Usually I see the White-Bellied Sea-Eagle foraging up and down the coast but today I got lucky - right place, right time.

Harassed!

I always take my camera with me when I walk to the beach in the hope of seeing some birds. This day I saw a White-bellied Sea-Eagle. Usually I see it foraging up and down the coast but today I got lucky - right place, right time.

It was circling in the sky looking for fish over the ocean. However it was being harassed in the sky by Seagulls and decided to have a rest. It tried landing on the cliff edge but pulled out at the last minute as I think the landing was too fast.

It then came down to the rock shelf and spent some time resting and looking for food before being harassed again and taking off back to the skies.
