Brahminy Kite and friend

Shot this at Beenleigh a few weeks back.

WhistlingDuck

Great shot 2xmaddoc of 2 x birds !  Do you know what species the "friend" is?

Some of the little birds will run off the big raptors - i saw two WB wood swallows seeing off a sea eagle once.

Great shot

I always find it touch ironic that Eagle is symbol of power for so many countries and empires.

Yet in reality the Roman Legion standards should really feature a Willy Wagtail :)

Dont take life too seriously, it never ends well

I can't be sure, but my first guess would be noisy miner, but that end of the park tends to be dominated by figbirds.
