Flight of the eagle


Here I was, walking blissfully along the white sandy beach of Perhentian Island when swooping down from the sky right into my path was an eagle! I wasn't sure if it was injured but it just hung around for the longest time. Maybe it just wanted company or a place to rest after scouring the skies for prey.

I believe it is a white-bellied sea eagle, judging from my search on the net.
What a majestic creature. I love birds of prey.
