Dear Members and Bird Watchers!
Just back home from the mangroves in Bang Pu, Bangkok.
I have seen many Brahminy Kites in Thailand and they are easy to ID. Never seen any here in Bang Pu.
But this bird, I can only ID the bird as a juvenile. I was busy with hundreds of gulls and terns when I saw the bird approach. I had not any raptors in mind but I looked up in the sky thinking maybe a crow.
The bird came close and it was a raptor, but by the time I had my camera ready for sky pictures the bird had passed and I only got a picture from behind.
So the picture leaves a lot to wish for. But is here anyone agree with me that it is a juvenile Brahminy Kite?
Kind Regards and Happy Birding
