African Fish Eagle
The African fish eagle looks just like the American Bald eagle. Although located on different continents, they are related. It is also known as the African sea eagle. Usually found throughout sub-Saharan Africa wherever large bodies of water & abundant food supply occurs. They usually mate for life. The eagle is the national bird of Namibia & Zambia
Hi, I’m Linda Antin,

Bateleur Eagle
This is considered a medium sized eagle, but one who is striking and considered one of the most colorful eagles in the world. It is the first one usually to come to any kill. This is a highly adapted hunter of the plains and prefers open habitats such as woodland savannas and grasslands. I think every day we were on safari we saw them soaring above us.
This blog is dedicated to a good friend of mine who actually got me interested in birds on one of the trips to Africa. I never was a birder, but Bill D. who wanted to stop at every single bird as we headed down into the Ngorongoro Crater, in Tanzania, had me begin looking for them by the end of the trip. Never realizing, birds give alarm calls to other animals letting them know there is a predator in the area. Now I love birding, photographing them and listening for them – thanks Bill D.
Join me next week as we come across baboons, elephant families and so much more. Thanks for following my blog and please let others know who love photography, travel & adventure to follow me on some amazing journeys.
You are so sweet! Thanks for mentioning me. Let’s go find a Secretary bird!
Outstanding pictures Karen!
