With its distinctive plumage and evocative cry, the African fish-eagle (Haliaeetus vocifer) is probably the most familiar bird of prey in Africa. Perched majestically on a high branch, the contrast between the white upper-body and tail (not obvious in this shot), the chestnut belly and the black wings is unmistakable.
Aside from fish, this efficient raptor will also take the young of water birds such as the lesser flamingo, and very occasionally will go for monkeys, crocodile hatchlings, frogs and insects.
I took dozens of shots of Fish Eagles in Kanana Nature Reserve before I was satisfied with this one, and a few others. My recycle bin is filled with rejected Fish Eagle shots.

A statue by Holly Bendall in Porthleven, Cornwall
Posing a powerful environmental question, Holly Bendall's sculpture, Waiting For Fish captures a moment between a man called Dave and a Bird. Intended to make us question where our fish comes from,
We were lucky enough to watch this heron for several minutes as it struggled to dispatch it's rather large prey.
Any help with the fish identification will gratefully be received. I suspect now that it's a short spined sea scorpion.

It was a coincidence, on the other side of the little creek were calves that I actually wanted to photograph. Suddenly there was a splash in the water and I was scared. Ah, a small fish, well it could not be the great white shark ;-))) It's not the best quality, but hey, it's a fish and it had to be quick.
Happy Smile on Saturday evening everyone! Stay healthy!!

Late afternoon over Montenegro's southern swamps in early winter. I stayed with a local family who took me out on the lake to fish and harvest wild pomegranate (very sour 😅).
Angelfish
Large, lovely and graceful, angelfish appear in various colour patterns. Because of their size when full-grown, angelfish require at least a 55-gallon tank. Angelfish do well with other fish species (although they may eat very small fish) but can fight with each other. Provide plenty of plants in the aquarium, as angelfish like to hide beneath them.

Thanks for viewing and have a great day!
391) Brown Fish Owl
Brown Fish Owl, Ketupa zeylonensis, Tumbuk Ketampi Rimba
This species is an all-year resident throughout most tropical and subtropical parts of the Indian Subcontinent to Southeast Asia and adjoining regions. The typical habitat of brown fish owls is forest and woodland bordering streams, lakes or rice fields. It inhabits mainly the lowlands, from open woodland to dense forest as well as in plantations. Brown fish owls frequently hunt in still or stagnant waters. It feeds mainly on fishes, frogs and aquatic crustaceans. Classified as totally protected species in Peninsular Malaysia.

A Parasitic Jaeger is seen in flight with two small fish in its bill — whether it obtained them itself or by theft from another bird is unknown. It was thrilling to watch the action as several of these members of the Skuas family took passes at various gulls and terns, and made twisting maneuvers when they located a potential ‘donor.’ The interactions took place off Cape Merry near the town of Churchill in the northern part of the Canadian province of Manitoba. [This species is called Arctic Skua in the Old World.]
The Fish Eagle is the epitome of African pride and grandeur for many people, with its piercing call carrying across the wilderness. The call is also the symbolic call in Africa for many. Both male and female birds call, with the male having a higher pitch than the female.
Fish Eagles feed on fish they catch by swooping down to the water surface from their perches in high trees. If they miss the catch they will return to the trees to seek out more fish on the surface. When catching a fish they will return to a perch and feed but should the fish be too heavy to pull out the water they will pull it to shore using their powerful wings to generate power.
