Ever take a photo and just go, “I like this photo”?

Yeah, this is one of those.

🇹🇼 Keelung - Heping Island & Miaokou Night Market
After nearly 5 years in Taipei… first time here!
#taiwan #taipei #keelung

I promise this is my last black kite (黑鳶 / Milvus migrans) for today - a great sharp shot of a bird in flight above Keelung Harbour in Northern Taiwan.

There was a couple photographing the kites at the same time as me, and they told me a remote location on the Xindian River where apparently you can get close to ospreys fishing off the river.

…recognise and start to predict. It turned into either:

- that bird just took a squid off the water, let’s stick with it and see if the others attack it, or

- that bird is being aggressive, I bet it’s about to fight someone, let’s stick with it and see who it attacks.

So - miracles of nature fit into a broader pattern, and the magic is in working out the pattern.

(3/3)

Not as sharp as I’d like, but you’re going to forgive me, given the timing and the detail on the water-droplets - a black kite / 黑鳶 (Milvus migrans), hunting squid off Keelung Harbour in Northern Taiwan.

The cleanliness and health of Keelung Harbour today is so starkly different from the cesspool that greeted me when I first went there in 1990. Taiwan has done so much to clean up its environment.
