….just aren’t your day. The colours at this time of year can be fantastic, but there are also days where the cloud never burns off and everything looks flat and unappealing. I don’t think this Brown Snake Eagle thought it was his day either as he was repeatedly mobbed and dive-bombed by this small Lillian’s Lovebird. The grey sky behind certainly didn’t help with getting the right exposure, but I think this shot correctly conveys the eagle’s mood at that point in time.
Other days are better, like when I found this Western Banded Snake Eagle perching conveniently on a dead mopane tree near the road.
