Bird Of Prey



Another couple of pics to share with you of a bird of prey which I have yet to correctly identify. It is possibly a Small Eagle [an actual species] or a member of the kite family. If anyone stumbles across this blog and can help identify, it would be gratefully appreciated.

I spotted this fellow perched in the nearby tree while sitting here at my computer a few months ago. The second shot was taken as the bird swooped down to check out some left over cat food which I had thrown out for some of the other birds.

Edit: 12 June 2006 - The bird is a Whistling Kite. They are in abundance here and probably nest across the road.
