Description
White-bellied Sea-Eagle soares above North Head in search of food I believe, took me by surprise, so quickly changing lens as it was my first time I actually got a chance to photograph him. He was fast !!!
The White-bellied Sea-Eagle feeds mainly off aquatic animals, such as fish, turtles and sea snakes, but it takes birds and mammals as well. It is a skilled hunter, and will attack prey up to the size of a swan. Sea-Eagles also feed on carrion (dead prey) such as sheep and fish along the waterline. They harass smaller birds, forcing them to drop any food that they are carrying. Sea-Eagles feed alone, in pairs or in family groups.
