White-bellied Sea Eagle


Getting this photo was case of being at the right place at the right time. I was actually on the other side of the river, when I heard the bats on Indooroopilly island making a commotion. I paddled across and spied this White-bellied Sea Eagle sitting in a dead tree. I managed to get my camera up in time to catch it taking off and I kept snapping shots as it dived into the mangroves and came out the other side carrying a bat. Awesome!
