Saw this Brahminy Kite searching the shore line for a feed.
Tried several in flight shots with varying success then one of the guys fishing nearby saw I was photographing the bird & threw one of the fish he had caught into the air & the kite was on to it in a flash.
Sat there for a while daring anyone to come & take it from him.

A couple of moments to regain composure .... Then it was a case of 'I'm off for morning tea .... See 'Ya.....'

    That fish looks heavier than the bird! I really like the second shot. Nice catch. :)

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
