The bateleur eagle is a mesmerizing bird. The medium-sized eagle is a colorful species and has earned its title as one of the most majestic African eagles.
Bateleur eagles are widely distributed in Africa, particularly in the south of the Sahara Desert. But unlike many eagle species, they prefer open land to dense forest.
Striking! B/W was a great choice to showcase the details. I love the perch too. The eagle is stunning.
His colors are very dramatic but I edited in b&w for a competition. I hope to enter it in color which I prefer. Thanks so much, Marie.
