    Rufous-bellied Eagle vs Black Hornbill, Borneo

    A young Rufous-bellied Eagle is stalking a male Black Hornbill. Fortunately, nothing happened. The Black Hornbill made numerous loud calls with his female mate not far away. Soon after, the Black Hornbill flew away, and the Rufous-bellied Eagle remained at the same location until it, too, flew away.

    Female Sparrowhawk visitor

    Our budgies kicked off a racket behind the curtains, next to the patio doors. When I parted the curtains this lovely lady was eyeing them up and trying to figure why she couldn't get at them. This is the second time one of these has attempted to get an easy snack. The Budgies do have a hide!

    White-tailed eagle

    I was watching this young eagle sit in a tree by a lake when two crows came and harassed him. The eagle flew across the lake and disappeared. I had a feeling where he might have resorted and walked around the lake. I found him there and took this photo from a close distance.
