Re: Bird Identification
I'd like to think that this is a juvenile black-chested snake-eagle? Taken in Kruger in 2017.

Re: Bird Identification
I thought BCSN because of the white inside of the tail.

Re: Bird Identification
Right But also the black-chested has bars on the tail and there is no sign of black chest nor white underside. The head is that of a brown snake-eagle and also the posture IMO.
