Rick on the last line: From a distance and above, we also saw a large raptor flying down-stream.
It had noticeable white on the upper side of its tail.
Sea-eagle?
Just on the basis of that, more likely to be a
Swamp Harrier. Sea-Eagles have a white tipped tail but that is hardly the most
noticeable thing about them.
