Ha, ha! Aki, I agree with you.
Pete, this was your day for raptors stuffing themselves! Three great posts, I can't say wich one I do prefer. Many congrats!

Thanks for the comments chaps.Aki,I think he'd find me a bit tougher than a dead Tommy,although I was well cooked by the sun! It was so dark when I took this shot that pyjamas were definitely in order.
Best wishes,Pete

Thanks for very nice shots. Martial Eagle seeks out the carcasses regularly?

I can't recall seeing another Martial on a carcass,but I would guess they are not averse to the odd free meal!
Best wishes,Pete
