white serpent eagle
This crested serpent eagle is a immature bird with black face and white belly feathers, which make it more like the laughing falcon in south America! But its upperside is as dark as other serpent eagles.
The bird was ready to take a rest on the top of a tall tree on the riverside at that time.

Dec. 2007

It blends in so well with the background, no wonder its prey do not see it.
