Gorgeous colors. They are very vivid and pure in a way, and the detail of the bird makes it all the more beautiful.

Oh wonderful! I remember seeing them in the evenings and mornings on the Orange River, back in the day. I was on holiday in November on the KZN South Coast, and heard them again. I was told there was a nesting pair there, so I wasn't hearing things. Grrreat shot!!

What an incredible shot! The clarity and color is amazing! I'm assuming you had to sacrifice ISO to obtain speed and aperture, but yet the noise is minimal at this size. Can you credit this to equipment filter or editing?

Hi. The Nikon D3s is amazing at high ISO settings. I did minimal noise reduction in processing here.

What does it have in its left talon?
In this species, is the female larger than the male and do you know the sex of this one?

Hi, it's a twig. Presumably for nesting material.
I think this was the male of the local breeding pair.

The eagle is so beautiful in itself and captured so well. Thanks for sharing. It made my evening.
