    @Marcel_73

    I think it's an immature Fish Eagle.
    Will check my books when I get home this evening

    We also thought so but the band across the eyes (eyebrows) made us lean towards Osprey

    Fish eagle

    unfortunately he/she never turned for us to see the feet and didn't fly, also this was shot with a 1000mm lens so it's quite a way away :lol:

    If you look at the photo that @A new day has posted, it looks like an intermediate between a and b

    Looks to be bigger than an Osprey
    A lot of white on wings.
    And there seem to be a few splodges of brown on the lower front
