An Osprey perched on a dead tree in a remote corner of the reservoir...
A Kingfisher perched on a little measuring rod atop a rocky outcrop in the middle of the reservoir's central channel. Around this time last year I rescued one of these birds from a net it had become trapped in. What are the odds it is the same one?
Looking right at me...
And then letting me know what he thinks of my 300 mm lens...
From yesterday, following a farmer's road upstream along a key tributary to the Tseng-wen river; another perched crested serpent eagle...
Another eagle, but this time in flight with the sun behind him...
I'm not quite sure about this bird - when she first flew over me, I suspected Kite on account of the bend in the wings, the narrowing of the wing-tips and the fanned-out tail, but the plumage is similar to the eagles. So it might be something else...
Another eagle taking off amongst the bamboo before I was ready - my camera was still in monochrome from earlier shots I had been taking a moment earlier of the riverbed...
