Spotted prey and went into a steep dive!!

This one also spotted prey and went into a steep dive!!

Strong wind flipping up its wings. ^^

The parent of the dominant Crested Serpent Eagle juvenile.

Little Grebe in the rice paddy. Too shallow — even when it dove, you could still see a bit of it. ^^;

The Avocet is in the same rice paddy as always.

Water droplets on its back.

Bursts out of the grass!!

It ate the prey in the grass, so I couldn't tell what it was.

Struggling hard to gain altitude!!

How much longer is it going to stay, I wonder.

While I was shooting the Crested Serpent Eagle, an Osprey appeared. Way too far. ^^;
