WBSE at MP

WBSE at MP

There is a WBSE at MP #20, i am here, if some one near by can join me. (Just for information)

I was waiting for Imperial Eagle Or greater spotted Eagle, weather was cloudy and visibility was very poor, suddenly i saw this bird came from nowhere, and landed on one of the tree:


The bird was there for good about half an hour and then came a bit close:


It was still far away for my 600 + 1.4 TC: I kept on watching the bird and by this time started raining and visibility went down further: And i think this should be a record photo all the three raptors together without any dispute among them:


After an hour or so, WBSE unexpectedly, flew towards the near by pond and got a fish and returned to the tree.


When i was leaving at around 3:45pm, WBSE was still there, eating fish. I just wanted to share the experience with you, probably some people will visit MP tomorrow, so look for the WBSE, if some one can find the bird then we can say  (still to early) that bird is getting resident.
Sorry for low quality photos.

Thanks for sharing~ good comparison of the sizes of the three eagles in one photo. The WBSE looks an immature bird.

I saw it on 19 Feb at #20 too.

There have been WBSE in Deep Bay on an occasional basis over the last few years. These have usually, but not always been young birds.
