Crested Serpent Eagle Juvenile No. 5
This is the fifth juvenile Crested Serpent Eagle. It seems a bit lethargic, and I'm worried about it.
The fifth individual this year, a juvenile. I wanted to photograph it in flight, but it seemed a bit weak — could only get about a metre off the ground and couldn't land on a branch… It walked up the mountain slope on foot and made its way up into the trees by climbing branch to branch. One to keep an eye on.
The first individual I found this year. It's always near the utaki. The utaki is off-limits, so I shot from the road.
