Martial Eagle with prey

[Bryan Pereira68 4]

The biggest of the African Eagles, I came across this one and spent around 20 minutes capturing her. The wart hog was quite a weight for her to take off with

480mm f7.1 iso 160 1/500 Nikon D810

Excellent set, I've never seen one, unfortunately.

Good shots, Bryan. Thanks for naming the prey item...I was struggling to figure out what, exactly, had been captured.

Brian very nice shots. They are a magnificent bird. I've seen a few on my Africa trips, but never one with prey.
