Media notes
Carrying away a big creeper/crawler larva away from me.
Observation details
Female Had to wait for quite a while to be able to see it find and eat some prey. This time it spotted the larva just about 10 meters away from me sitting. Surprisingly, was bold enough to come towards me and then carry it away to the same perching spot on the electric pole where it finished feeding quickly. It's patience ran out first, as it decided to take a look in the field by flying around and also hovering - seeing this for the first time, just like BWKI. Then I decided to leave.
