Summary

Description

A lucky sighting for the day when I spotted this medium sized eagle on a bare tree next to the forest dirt road. The bird was making several calls and seemingly waiting for the day to get a bit hotter. I suppose it needs thermals to soar and the day was still moist and cool

The bird is named after its appetite for snakes and could be often seen flying in the area that I visited. The calls are quite loud and distinct, so easily heard.

I couldn't find a clear angle, so spent around 45 minutes following the bird where I can and luckily it stuck to the edge of the road. But unfortunately, it was against the sun most of the time, so I enjoyed the view as much as I can while grabbing a few shots.

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.
