Observation details

While riding on the safari in the Nagarhole National Park at around 7:25 am, a man in front of us urged us to stop immediately as he spotted a peculiar bird on a tall thin bone colored tree about 200 meters away. I picked up the lens and zoomed in to take a shot and afterwards reviewing it and inserting the picture into MerlinID, turned out to be the grey headed fish eagle 🦅. It was indeed a very lucky spot and woundt have noticed it unless the man had pointed it out.
