Description

White-bellied Sea-Eagles are a common sight in coastal and near coastal areas of Australia. But despite its name, the sea-eagle is not confined to coastal areas, and the species is regularly recorded at terrestrial wetlands far from the sea, especially along larger inland rivers and at freshwater swamps and lakes.
This Eagle I spotted is from West Head, Sydney and its flying over the bay in search of food.
Few Australian birds of prey are as spectacular as the White-bellied Sea-Eagle. Although it is similar in shape to the well-known Wedge-tailed Eagle, and almost as large, the sea-eagle is readily distinguished by its contrasting crisp-white and ashy-grey/brown plumage, which adds to its striking appearance as it soars effortlessly on broad wings across the ocean.
