| Hi 飛, 我這隻烏鵰夠黑夠烏吧! Mai Po 米埔 06/11/2004 4:30pm Poor light+poor air quality+poor skill & exposoure time..... = poor photo 請諒! Hi Daniel, yours is a Spotted Eagle. However, the color of your photos is a little bit strange. The bird should look darker in the field. Usually, Spotted Eagle is being seen at the high sky. The far away distance and backlight conditions make us difficult to see its color clearly. However, we always id it based on its wing shape (sudden narrowed wing depth near the body), the proportion of its head, wing depth & tail (0.5:1:0.5) and its white U on upper tail coverts. I hope all you can find out these features in Daniel's stunning photos and my poor photos. Regards, Forrest

Forrest, thanks for explanation and I know more about it. Yes, it was in backlight condition and always on the high sky. The last one is just cutting off both left & right to have the largest bird in my series of shots last sat. on Nov 13th, 2004, 12:46am, Forrest FONG wrote: 這隻烏鵰夠黑夠烏吧! |
