Hello All,

I have visited the Kgalagadi game reserve and came across the attached Eagle. it could be juvenile bird as we could not identify it in the birds of prey book.

Any thoughts what this could be.

Regards

Maybe juve. African Crowned Eagle (aka Crowned Hawk-Eagle) Stephanoaetus coronatus

A pale juvenile Black-Chested Snake Eagle?
