Tai Sang Wai 大生圍
The eagle should be very annoyed while it was enjoying a big fish from the fishpond, the crows made the attacks from its back !

Paul thanks for the shots. Wing stretching 170-250cm, even steppe eagle could be ambushed by collared crows, no wonder "endangered" . And, how clever crows could be! Hearsay that it had quite a big appetite for the Tai Sheng Wai pond fishes!
呢排飛左去大生圍，之前Godwin在MP影到。聽聞大生圍本周曾一度聚集400人影草原鵰，真犀利過Mirror。請問，它算不算迷鳥(vagrant)? 其目的地是哪兒？記錄說2008年第一次本港發現。

Hello K_Chan,
According to Birdlife International : "Birds from Altai, Siberia eastwards (A. n. nipalensis) winter mainly in south and south-east Asia." Therefore even though HK is not the wintering destination of this eagle, it is still possible for this juvenile eagle to stop over here on its way to SE Asia.

Thanks Paul again. Yes it may be wintering in here.
