I need to take better notes with my photos as I haven't yet remembered the name of this birdlet but I like the image of the bird flying toward me as it leaves the bamboo. It's close to the golden hour in the wetland at this point, so even though the sky is utterly cloudless, there was a lot of warmth in the color of the light.

Two African Fish Eagles sit together to survey their world. The larger, stockier bird on the lower branch is the female. The slighter bird sitting protectively above her & turned to regard the viewer is the male.

Note: When zooming in hard on this photograph, I can see that the male has lost his right eye, but it doesn't seem to be slowing him down any.
