I remember seeing and hearing fish eagles on Lake Malawi - long time ago!
You sound ancient? 100 years plus maybe I was there in 2010, beautiful country and people. Did'nt see any fish eagles though.

A giant blind snake I posted in the Alphabet thread. A lightly differerent view. So glad I saw this, as I usually only see them dead.

I spent a couple of years in the Lower Shire in the early 1970's and made several trips to the Lake. We used to sleep on the beach - colourful cichlids under the water, monkeys in the trees, fish eagles, flying by. Pre-AIDS, so it was a different world.

An otter under water. These guys were all but impossible to photograph, Constantly moving, and generally fast.

Watched with delight the duel between these 2 Giraffe Slow paced, much movement away from each other and then coming back together for neck butting. Does very little damage, more about status than anything else.

Same young female leopard. Life goes on, but I'm deeply deflated this morning.

At the zoo, and like me just visiting, but taking advantage of facilities that I bypassed.
