Australia's smallest and largest eagles together 5 years 9 months ago #1769
| Firstly, this is by no means my best image but I thought it might be of some interest despite the poor image quality. I was recently out on the Marrakai Track (Northern Territory) when right up high in the hazy sky I saw these two birds circling together. I immediately recognized the unmistakable shape of a wedge-tailed eagle but could not tell at first what the much smaller bird was. I thought it may have been a Whistling Kite but when I had a look through my binoculars I saw it was a Little Eagle. I pulled out the camera and stretched that 600mm lens to the max (crop factor and all) and was at least able to obtain these images. I thought it was cool to see Australia's largest and smallest eagles side by side and to see the size comparison. |
