Raptors of Pulau Burung

Pulau Burung, Penang

I spotted this Crested Serpent Eagle near the entrance to the dump site. I started shooting from it's right side and a few minutes later 2 more photographers arrived and started shooting from the left side. This bird didn't seem to mind our presence except for it's occasional glance towards our position.
































If we can turn our head like this bird, we probably won't be needing the rear view mirror in our car.....































On the way out of Pulau Burung, I saw this Brahminy Kite perched on the electric cable by the road side. Managed only a few shots before it flew off ....































180 deg head turn just like the Eagle....
