Pictured is a tawny eagle perched on top of a dead leafless tree in the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Africa. A large bird of prey, it favors open dry habitats such as semideserts, deserts, steppes or savannah plains. The tawny eagle is highly opportunistic, often scavenging on carrion or engaging in kleptoparasitism toward other carnivorous birds, but is also a bold and active predator, often of relatively large and diverse prey. The binomial name is Aquila rapax. The photograph was taken from a safari jeep stationed at the Atzaro Okavango Camp. |
