Feelings, unicorns, and possible eagles

[andrewducker]

Today has been a better day. I slept for about 12 hours, woke up in time for breakfast, spent most of the day lying around the hotel room (except for 45 minutes when they threw me out to clean the room), chatted to friends online, and read the entirety of Phoebe And Her Unicorn, which was great, and I recommend anyone who enjoyed Calvin & Hobbes

Thanks to some prodding on FB I think it could be a black kite, which has a wingspan of about 150cm and looks like this:


which is a similar curvature of wing, and tail shape.

Or this chap:



Pallas's fishing eagle- one of the smaller fishing eagles and common in those parts.

This seems more likely from the behaviour description - kites don't seem to be big fish-eaters from what I can find.

Certainly the UK's red kite doesn't go fishing!
