We went to Lake Baringo last weekend and I managed to get a couple of decent bird shots. First one here is of an African fish eagle. They throw a tilapia from the boat and the eagle swoops down and snatches it from the water. The second is of a verreaux's eagle owl that has taken up residence on Samatian island. There's a bit of a mouse problem on the island and when they manage to catch some they throw them to the owl.

Thanks. It was the first time that I took the 5DMII out for birding.
