Midday at Jerra W

["Geoffrey Dabb" <>]

Quite a few reports of sea-eagles lately.  A pair were in a dead tree by the silt trap at midday, snapped here from the other side against the backdrop of light-industrial Fyshwick.  The bird on the right was having a fish lunch, shown as a take-away when it flew off, perhaps to that little-visited stretch of the Molonglo between Fyshwick and Queanbeyan.  The other bird was possibly a female by size and a first immature going by the blotchy wings and lack of solid black on the base of the tail.
