An African fish eagle stands upright on a dark, weathered tree stump in open grassland. It has a clean white head and chest, a strong yellow hooked beak, and deep brown wings.
The bird looks calm and alert as it scans the area for food. This species often lives near rivers and lakes and hunts by swooping down to grab fish with powerful talons, but it can also take small animals or feed on carrion.
Species common name: African fish eagle
